A Whole Lotta Happy

We went to the State Fair last Monday. As you can see from the photos, everyone had a great time.

My 3 favorite memores of the fair are:
1. Jacqueline and Sophie dancing, giggling and screaming with excitement when we went into the animal barn. They thought it was really cool being that close to the cows, donkeys, goats, chicks, and horses.

2. Watching J&S eat their first corndog. Yes, we broke down and let them eat fried food. As Shannon said, "at least it has some vegetable matter." At least it wasn't fried butter! For the record, Shannon had a corndog too. I had a Polish sausage.

3. The painting of the teddy bear done by rubber stamping was beautiful.

Examining the corndog closely. She ate the whole thing.

Exhausted kids at nap time. Sophie never napped until the ride home.



Listening to bluegrass music. There was much dancing

"Me too!"

Adorable pictures!
Too bad you couldn't have taken Pete, Lily, Ares, Athena and Apollo with you. I'm sure they would have liked the animals and Ares would have thoroughly enjoyed that corndog!
