Shakespearean Festival

Last weekend we headed on down to Cedar City with Josh's family for the Shakespearean Festival. Unfortunately, quick overnight trips with family aren't quite as easy now that Ainslie's getting bigger, but we still had a lot of fun spending time with family and enjoying the play. Thanks to Mom and Dave for making it possible!Janae's been to the festival before, and sitting on the stage in the middle of the replica Globe Theater brought back lots of fond memories. Ainslie didn't get to go into the play, but she had lots of fun running laps around the campus at SUU.And she loved playing with the girls. Saturday afternoon we got to see Cyrano de Bergerac. Janae missed the first half of the play while she and Ainslie were taking a nap, but Josh thought the play was great. We're pretty lucky to have the Shakespearean Festival so (relatively) close to home, and we're looking forward to going back (once Ainslie's old enough to enjoy a play or two).On a different note, Josh inadvertantly caught this humorous series of pictures while we were in Cedar City. Binky falling in mid-air - distress over fallen binky - wiping it off - putting it back.

There's some problem solving skills for you. We're trying to be good parents by helping Ainslie realize that she doesn't need to have a binky in hand all of the time. But, that little green monster (the binky, not Ainslie) is proving to be quite the foe . . .
