The kids have gone to bed, we've finally eaten our dinner and I'm just sitting here drinking my wine, waiting for Andrew to return with my yogurt with peanut butter cup toppings. So I thought I'd update the blog with some fun times from this year's State Fair.
As per the last several years, Grandmama and Grandaddy met us early at the fairgrounds- with ham biscuits!! Yummy!! We scarfed those down easily (with lots of mustard, of course), then headed straight to the rides.
Sam was content for most of the time playing with his feet
Here's our first ride!
Tyler and Grandmama on "Jalopy Junction"
Notice throughout, Tyler constantly picks the blue car/dragon/truck/etc to ride
He rode with Mommy on some dragon-dinosaur looking things that went around in circles.
Had Mommy known circles were involved, she may not have as eagerly agreed to ride this one
Grandaddy and Daddy on Sam duty and keeping watch over both strollers while Tyler was gallivanting around throughout the fair
Ladybug ride all by myself!
Petting zoo and farm animal time!
Look who who we found-
Olivia and Evan!
(friends from school)
As we were walking away from the ride section of the fair, we noticed a MONSTER TRUCK ride. OMG- we couldn't let this one pass us by. Monster Trucks, after all, are one of Tyler's most favorite thing in the world. Daddy was up for this one.
Daddy could barely fit in this truck, but it was well worth the scrunch.
Quick wave as they passed by
Tyler: "Mommy, that was SO awesome!!!"
On a sadder note, unfortunately Uncle Bill passed away last week. Mom, Dad, and Michael came up to Durham for the funeral and brought Tyler an old computer of theirs. He's been using the computer at school and has been asking about one at home. Ask and you shall receive!!
Poppa and Tyler with "the best toy ever!!" according to Tyler
Oooohhhhh!! My yogurt is here- gotta run!
