We had a pretty fun summer this past summer. We stayed really busy, but we wouldn't have had it any other way!!
In May we have the Cajun Heartland State Fair in Lafayette, so we headed over there the Saturday night with Heidi and Adam to watch the concert and ride a few rides.
Cullen wanted to ride the ferris wheel, so we headed that direction. Ryan and Adam were not big fans of the whole idea, but they were troopers. I am not afraid of heights and I usually love roller coasters and all things of the nature.....EXCEPT THIS TIME!! We got on the ferris wheel and went around one time. That is when we noticed how bad the wind was and just how close the coming storm was to us. Obviously, the guy running the ferris wheel got the memo and he started unloading it.....right AFTER he passed our cart. It got pretty scary for a minute but we survived it. Cullen now wants no part of any ferris wheel anywhere!
Heidi and Adam....he's already closing his eyes!
The Richard Family...before the madness!
He realized I was taking his picture and looked up and smiled. Otherwise he had his head burried. I will not lie...I did get worried for little bit. I really thought at any minute the thing was going to crash to the ground!!
Cullen driving the 18 wheelers...from the back!
This race car whipped those kids around that corner like no other, but he loved it.
Driving again!
He and Daddy rode the big slide....plenty of times!

Wyatt and Julien both played baseball this past season and they were both selected to play on their divisions All Star teams. Wyatt is in his 2nd year of T-Ball and Julien in his 2nd year of Coach pitch. Most of their tournaments were at the same place. There were a few times that they were different but overall it was pretty easy to attend both teams games! This occupied every weekend in June, but it was really fun. I've learned that I get way more competitive than I should!! :-)

Cullen was worn out. This was the last game on Sunday and it had a been a long, scorching weekend.

Those kids were troopers. They played game after game in the scorching heat and they did absolutely wonderful. I'm sure we will do it all over again next year!
