Today we went to the Boulder County Fair, lucky us it is just around the corner from our new home. Fairs are much cooler when you are a kid, or maybe this fair was just on the lame side. Even the milkshakes were blah. But the kids had a good time checking out animals, seeing a pig talent show (the things adults have to sit through for kid entertainment!) and eating cotton candy.
Afton trying her hand at fishing. No luck!
Enjoying milkshake for lunch.
Abel chasing the piglet in the petting zoo.
Baylie and Afton petting the baby camel.
Baylie's candy handcart. We tried to eat as much junk food as possible in the 3 days Baylie spent with us. What else does an 11 year old want to do on vacation?!
I enjoyed having Baylie here during a really busy streak for Patrick at work. She and I watched movies together every night. She helped pick up the house and make some meals. And she entertained the kids all day every day of her trip.

Looks like you all had a fun week. I think fairs are still fun, so maybe you got a lame one. Always nice to have family come visit, especially when they are old enough to help out a bit;)
Too bad about the fishing Afton, come up here and we'll take ya. Pria's got a sweet little pole and we promise you'll get a fish :)
i have never liked fairs or the smells that go with them. i was always very nervous when we'd go at home. we have never taken the kids to a fair and probably won't until they ask. some things i just don't wanna do!
I never knew you didn't like fairs christy!
Ang...fishing would be fun for Afton to do with Pria. Soon!
