great weekend

Well this week started the fair season here in our area. Wednesday we went to the Jefferson County Fair, and Thursday we went to the Lewis County Fair. Jefferson county fair was really bad. Way over priced and not enough rides or attractions, or exhibits. The Lewis County Fair was way better. there was a lot of different animals, from cows and horses, to pigs and chickens and ducks and dogs. we didn't too much that day. Robbie did ride a few rides but not as much as he wanted. Well Saturday thought we would go back and just see what happened. well i bought him a wrist band for unlimited rides till 6pm. He must have rode at least 30 times not counting the jungle gym they had. around 3 we went to investigate what was making so much noise and we walked into the demolition derby. at first he didn't understand why they were crashing into each other. well after 6pm I decided we would go see the demolition derby's main event. it was really cool and we both enjoyed it. even with the mud flying into the stands. they even had a mini-van division which was really cool. in total there were 7 different derby's we didn't leave the fair till 10 pm. talk about a really tired little boy. we had a great time together. we ate chili cheese fries, drank old fashioned root beer and fresh squeezed lemon ade. Lani, they even had elephant ears there, but we didn't get one. we want to wait till your here so we all can share on e together. other than that i have a lot to do this week as I'm trying to get everything together so i can go back to school. more on that follows later. I also have some VA appointments.

more later......

Sounds like another fun week and weekend! No pictures? I know, I know - you sent them to me. But everyone else might like to see them too. I can't wait until we can all share an elephant ear together!!

I'm glad to hear that you and Robbie are going places and having so much fun together. I enjoyed Robbie's post too (on his page). I'm waiting to hear more about the school part.
