Our stake hosted an Emergency Preparedness Fair last Saturday. We had an amazing turn out from the community, over 2000 people came throughout the day. For those of you who don't know, Bentonville is the home of Wal-Mart, and Sam's Club's. Also, all of the vendors who supply Wal-Mart and Sam's club are in this area. That's why we are here, working for Unilever. We got everything we needed for the fair and more donated from these companies. For instance, Sara Lee and Pepsi CO donated lunch for over 2000 visitors. We were able to put together over 2000 basic 72-hour kits to give away. The items in the kits were all donated from various companies. Of course Unilever was a big donor. For those of you who are not sure what Unilever is, let me just list a few of their products. Jesse is the Sales analyst for their health and beauty line which include, dove, suave, carress, axe, sunsilk, ponds, and vaseline. But they also have products in food, laundry, and home care. Ethan had a blast checking out the AirEvac, he got to wear the headphones, sitting in the firetrucks, jumping in the bounce house, and meeting "Dora", who he was actually a bit scared of. Here are some pics of the event. The helicopter pilot gave Ethan a little stuffed eagle because he was the first to visit, she only had three so we felt proud to get one, Ethan held it all day and when we got home he wouldn't take a nap without it.

Hey I didn't know you had a blog! I can't believe how big Avery is. She's almost a year isn't she? Wow. How are you guys?
Ethan's so cute snuggling his little eagle. I also love the picture of him with Dora. He looks like he's just begging for someone to rescue him from giant creepy Dora! Avery's so cute walking her little tractor toy around. She'll probably be running in a few marathon's in a couple weeks at the rate she's going!
