Morgan-mania

A couple of weekends ago we headed north to Morgan to visit our
friends/family (I use the slash because they are family but cool enough to make friend status).
When the Carnies were deciding to move to Morgan, Michele claims that when they pulled 
into this beautiful valley, the clouds parted and the sun shined a little brighter that day.
I believe it. When we came around the corner I was ready to pack up shop and move in next door.

For two reasons:
Morgan is beautiful with a great small town feel.
AND
The Carnesecca's rock...can you imagine being neighbors with lady
that signs your husband up for a pie eating contest at the Morgan fair?

My pie eating man and his cousin Chad
It does not end there. 
Trent, are you smarter than
a 5th grader? I hope so, because Michele just signed 
you up with some local competition to see how smart you REALLY are!
Yes, I would love to be this woman's neighbor.

Michele can share this story better than me but
lets just say she was majorly ripped out of not one but TWO
electric scooters at the fair. She asked if I would like to enter the paper clip
contest (I am not gifted when it comes to creativity)...but, I felt special that 
she would even consider asking if I would like to join her in the 90 plus degree
weather to see if we could kick some juvinal bum.
Just for the record, Michele should have won...she is crazy creative.


Fair fun...


Cousin Power!


The Carnies took us to their favorite dining joint in Morgan...Stephs.
Michele posts about Stephs on her blog... I was pretty much
set that we WOULD be getting a picture at Stephs.
If the Carnies take you to Stephs its like saying,
"Congrats- you made it to the celestial kingdom!"
Well, kind of.

 My sister wife.

I wish we were not related because I would be 100% happy if
 Tate married Cate.

Baby Ethan and Trent

Blast from the past!
 What do you get when the Carnies, Greenwoods and Savages
get together?

Too many kids in the foam pit.
ps This is my favorite part of the Carnie pad.

Chad and Michele...bless you and your home!
We have nothing but "deep gratitude, filled with a rich history for your family"
love you guys!

I think the highlight of Michele's day was video taping me climbing out
of their five foot deep foam pit while Tate bounced up and down on my head.
Now, that is a good friend.

  2. Good times.........great post. My favorite line, "Trent, are you smarter than a 5th grader? I hope so because......". Cute pic of Ethan and Trent-o. I didn't know you took a picture of me in the throngs of paper clipping (slightly embarrassing). :)

    1. It doesn't surprise me you didn't notice me taking a picture...you were really into it. That picture probably reminds you of how rigged the fair was. I still might muster the courage to call the mayor. Your AWESOME!
