And We're Off to the Fair!
This past Friday was the first day of the State Fair--- and Dollar Day! So, after Dustin got off work, we packed a picnic dinner and made our way downtown. It was quite a little adventure. (On her blog, a friend of mine (who also went) sums up very well what I mean by "adventure". ;) ) All in all, though, it was a whole lot of fun and we're glad we went. It reminded me of the fun we had last year when the boys and I went with my mom. I can't believe it's been a year. Good memories!!
We figured since we saved a bundle on admission, we could spluge a little on the rides. Benjamin
, of course, thought the *rides were the absolute 
coolest thing ever. My favorite is always the big *ferris *wheel. We went after it was dark and it was awesome to see a bird's-eye view of all the lights. 
There's also tons and tons of fun kiddie areas, which both boys 
loved. Even though we ended up staying until 10pm, Jonathan was a trooper and just *played and *played and PLAYED. The boys especially loved the petting zoo, which included some fun exotic animals like a zebra, camel, ostrich, emu, and giraff. Our little guys were sure pooped by the end, but I think it was some good family memory-making. :)

This is another video clip which offers more understanding why Prop 102, and others like it, are so very important. Over half the U.S. has passed similar propositions.
Spread the word! Let's protect our right, as parents, to teach our children the moral standards and values we know to be true and right as opposed to being forced to support and uphold what we know to be wrong. Thanks!!!

Prop 102 (California Prop 8) and great articles on the subject
I support the state proposals to define marriage as one man and one woman.
Here is a great article expressing the position of our Church, of which we support whole-heartedly.
This proposition is about preserving God's divine establishment of marriage and the family. It's about preserving the rights of children to be raised by both a mother and a father. It's about preserving the religious right to voice one's own beliefs, which may be in jeopardy. And, perhaps most importantly, it is about preserving the acceptance of traditional family values in our already demoralized society.
For another great article see protectmarriage.com,also www.preservingmarriage.org for more good info.
