Photo Essay: The Kids Market. Provo, Utah.


Held in the parking lot of Provo High School, the Kids Market went from 10:30 a.m. until 1:30 p.m. today, Saturday. There were approximately 75 booths set up, with kids selling everything from fidget spinners to honey straws. Parents were allowed to help set up and take down the booths, but otherwise were discouraged from helping or advising their children. 


So Jonny and Sarah just sat back in the shade and let Ohen and Noah run things out in the hot sun -- the way parents ought to.


Lance, of course, wangled a bubble blowing kit, which he proceeded to churn into a sudsy avalanche. 



Son-in-law Jonny just HAD to supervise a little -- to make sure the whipped cream in the krumkakes didn't go flat. A born rebel, that one. 



You make krumkake (pronounced KROOM-kaka) in this do-jig



And this is how they turn out, filled with flavored whipped cream, The boys sold them for a dollar a piece.

Well, the crowd is starting to thin out -- time to pack things up


After everything is packed up, Grandpa Tim takes the crew out to eat at Panda Express right across the street. Yessiree, I'm the last of the Big Time Spenders! Jonny and Sarah are taking the kids up to Strawberry Resevoir this afternoon to go camping and fishing, so I wanted to spare Sarah the hassle of making lunch at home before they leave. They'll stay overnight and come back tomorrow night. One part of me wants to scold them for missing Sabbath services at church -- but another part of me wishes I could go with them.
