Matt and I had the opportunity to go up to Richmond and spend time with the family to celebrate Black-and-White Days! We missed it last year so we were excited to go up this year and see how small towns celebrate important things, like cows. On Saturday we went down to the park and got to see Bradley do his little jumprope show with his group and walk around the little tents. There was also a cow pie eating contest that Brad won last year, but, sadly, did not win this year. Later we went up the street to the parade, where Claire reigned in the candy! She was pretty shy at first, but was excited at the end to scream and have people throw her candy. Brad was jumproping in the parade. Even the adults were on their feet to grab as much candy as possible!

After the parade, Randy had the whole neighborhood over for a BBQ, cornhole tournament, and fire. The boys bought a six foot high trophy at a garage sale to give to the winner of the tournament (I was totally fine that Matt and I were both eliminated in the first round of the tournament!). The adults got to sit around the fire while the kiddos watched a movie on the back of someone's house and we all went to bed that night exhausted, but had a great time!

The girls, and Ryan, sitting on the dirt hill chatting like old bitties... Can't wait for them to all be in high school!
