What DOES daddy do?

Today was a lot of fun. Brent signed us up to go to his job's open house. So we drove up to Lehi, making a stop at Cabella's so Kit can look at the Taxidermy, and the huge fish tank and stuff. That was neat. Then we went up the hill and got to look around, a little. The had booths set up for each department. They geared it towards the kids, so, of course, I liked it. Puchasing made you "process" a candy order and you got to be the warehouse person & stuff but in the end you got candy, and that was good. The people from Singapore (they're here training for a new FAB to open there) had food & games from there. I got the spinning top record for 40 sec. but it was quickly beaten, but I got a key chain out of it. Brent's department was giving out Balloons! Kit LOVED them. Of course Brent and I kept worring that she's try to eat it & it would pop in her face/mouth. but nope, we made it home with the balloon & Kit played with it all day. She pulled it around on it's string, looking up at it, & then pulling it down. (yea it was a helium Balloon) So that was fun to watch. In all it was a fun day they had a carnival for the kids outside with little games & a bouncing castle thingy. It was nothing like IBM's old carnivals, but in the penny pinching corporate world that we live in, it was still quite nice!! I didn't actually get to see where Brent works but I got to see his cubicle (woohoo prarie dog land!) but it was interesting looking in the windows of the doors and trying to piece together what he does all day, and Kit made it through the whole thing just getting scared once at the man in the clean room garb that covered him head to toe except for his eyes & nose. I don't know why, but he scared Kit and she freaeked out. She kept watching him like he would eat her or something, but she was fine once we left the booth. But we get a little ID for Kit to have, and that's a neat keepsake. So yea it was fun. Kit got her first taste of a snowcone, and after eating all of Brents continued to eat half of mine. :) We also had a BBQ tonight with the guys Brent works with. That was neat to meet/meat them and enjopy time at the park. I wished I had brought my camera to both events, Kit was so cute iwth ther purple moustache from the snowcone, and she was having a great time going down the slides at the park. It amazes me that she can keep herself seated upright while sliding; instead of letting inertia pull her back.
