Orem city summer festival

About a year has passed since the dinner incident and my we decide to go on a trip to the Orem city summer fest. We always loved going to the Orem city summer festival. There were rides, food, a parade, and last but not least, fireworks.




Joseph just got out of the car to put the blankets and sheets on the ground to save our spot and then, meet us at the rides.

"Mom, can we go on the strawberries next," Jacalyn asked.The strawberrys are like these rides that spin around and are, well, shaped like strawberrys. We were where the rides were, and after we were done with the rides, we going to the section of the festival that has food.







I especially love the chocolate dipped cheesecake on a stick. There is also deep fried Twinkies, candy bars, and so may more fried and chocolate covered things.




"Now, it's time to get something to eat and go to the paride, " Mom said looking around." Where is Joseph?"




" I don't know. Maybe he went looking at one of the booths, or he is just walking around doing nothing, " I said. Joseph has this thing going on with here one second, gone the next; And so that what really ticks mom off, a lot.




After we have had our fried, smothered chocolaty stuff we started heading to the spot where Joseph put the blankets to save our spots. On the way we saw the one place that is our favorite place when we go to the festival, the booth with chocolate covered fried cheesecake (total deliciousness). And guess who was at the booth next to it looking at old cowboy stuff, Joseph.




Joseph saw and came over to us with a brown paper bag filled with some cowboy books and old western stuff. When the whole "family" was to the spot where we had put our blankets and sheets, they were moved over.




The space that Joseph chose was in between two trees, each one about 4 or 5 yards apart. The other people moved our stuff only half way. Mom and all of us 4 kids weren't bothered by it; but Joseph, oh darn, he was furious. If this was a cartoon he would have steam coming out of his nose and ears, and having his head on fire because he was that mad.




Joseph walked up to a guy, who I guess moved the stuff, and said," Ouy,man, why did you move my things! I was here first and it's first come first served." Joseph was pointing his finger at the guy as he was saying this. " So buzz off." He said but he didn't say buzz, off. He said the F word.




They guy and Joseph started to get into a big argument. It was like war with only 1 person on each side ( or 1 on 1). There were lots of cussing in the argument.




When the argument started to die down my mom said to them, "let's all just watch the parade and the get on with our lives." We did watch the parade, Joseph and the guy didn't fight but when the parade was over. Cause started all over again. The guys grandma, or mother stopped them. We went home and watched the fireworks from there.




We never saw the guy after that day.
