Washington County Fair

We survived yet another year at the Washington County Fair! We spent a total of 6 evenings at the fairgrounds from Saturday to Saturday and we are not even showing yet! Thankfully the kiddos go with the flow and the late nights don't totally affect them. We all actually look forward to it every year and I can only see our involvement growing as the kids get older.

Dalton and PoPo were the champion duck racers.

For some reason while walking through the cattle barn Mallory decided to show the cows her belly. She will certainly be our little cowgirl and will be showing cows in no time.

Cub Game #2

We actually made it through a complete game and the Cubs won!

Taking the field after the game was a huge hit with both kids.

Check out their moves...

As we get set to embark on our second trip to cheer on the Cubs I realized I never blogged about the 1st trip so here goes. Overall it was an experience. Dalton wanted to play with his friends but once away and in the stands he actually enjoyed watching the game. Mallory, well let's just say we expect way to much from this little girl at nearly 3 and are quickly reminded of her attention span and tantrums. Our patience and sanity was tested on more than one occasion. We were thankful for understanding fans sitting around us and grateful for the opportunity to make it thru the 1st half of the football game. Here's to hoping round 2 is slightly easier.

A halftime tribute to Senior Justin Davis.

One of Mallory's moments that almost brought tears to my eyes. She folded her hands during Justin's prayer.

The boys were fired up and ready for the 2nd half just as we decided it was our time to head home.
