Family Fun

One Friday evening, we thought it would be fun to try something new as a family.  So we went to a small Thai restaurant so the kids could experience Thai / Asian food.  The funnest part was finding the longest noodles and trying to slurp them down.  Of course we were almost the only visitors at the restaurant and so we probably were quite the scene for the employees :-).  Cooper slurped up his noodle and it got caught down his throat and he pulled it back up.  At first he was upset about how he was choking, till Nate told him that he used to do that all the time as a kid.  Then Cooper started trying harder to get the noodles caught down his throat.  :-)  The kids tried real hard to use chopsticks and we told them that the people in Thailand (they are familiar with China from movies) only use chopsticks and don't know how to use forks!  They thought that was pretty unique!  So they did their best with their sticks.  Even Kaylee enjoyed eating super long noodles!  We talked about Grandma in Utah and that she went on a mission to a Chinese place and had to eat with chopsticks.  She also had to eat weird foods like fish eyes and duck feet and the kids thought that was crazy!!  It was a fun evening!

After our yummy Thai experience, we went down to the Jefferson Pointe Mall where every Friday night they have a fun band playing.  Jaxton took Kaylee out to the middle where they danced and danced and had a ball!  It was a fun family evening!!
