World Fest


Lee and I live in University housing, which is filled with mostly international student families. Apparently each year they hold a celebration of the world's cultures. That happened to be today. from 12 to 2 they had a children's carnival with some fun free games. Ty got to throw balls through holed, go fishing for swedish fish, toss birdies in hoops, and go bowling. He still doesn't seem to completely understand what to do, but he was good at listening when I pointed to the hole. Each game we got tickets, that we then were able to use for prizes or food. Ty now has his first slinky. His favorite thing is to stretch it, then let it snap back.
Later in the day they had entertainment put on from people living in the apartments and from others. We got to see cloggers, some of which were from our ward, and there was a "fashion show" of different outfits from the different countries, and many different musical numbers. Ty loved bouncing, clapping, and dancing to the music. They even had a dinner provided with foods from all over. It was interesting being able to try so many new foods, some of which I really liked, others... not so much. Ty really liked the couscous they had.
