Labor Day at the Greekfest!

YES, I should have taken more pictures!! Yesterday we went to the Greek Festival here in Long Beach. It was a festival that the Greek Orthodox Church puts on every year here to celebrate Greek culture. We got to go inside the very ornate church and listen to some cool Greek chanting that made the kids laugh. It was a nice little outing on a great afternoon!

Travis let the kids pick a carnival ride to go on and this is what everyone picked. The big swing thing... I think that's what it's called.

It's building up to go pretty high! Beau has this nonchalant look on his face for EVERY ride he has ever ridden in his life. Even at Disney when he rode on a big roller coaster this casual expression is the one on the picture that snaps during the crazy part. But don't let it fool you because when he's done he is so excited and says it's the best experience of his short existence.

Here's Maizie & Jack's shoes! They loved this ride!

After the kids went on a ride we got some greek food to enjoy. We shared a lamb gyro which Maizie & Beau thought was "nasty". Whatev!! We also had some Greek french fries which are regular french fries with lemon juice and oregano on them. Super YUM! After that we enjoyed some sort of custardy, pastry, honey-y, yummy dessert that Trav picked out. We don't know the name of it but it was delish!!

Here is Maizie having attitude because the dessert was gone. All good things must come to an end, sister.

Jack making some sort of face about something.

All my men!

Travis & Tough Guy

We had a great time together and are going to look for more fun festivals like this to go to together!
