4-H Fair

Look at our ribbons!!

Ryne's favorite parts of the fair, the Llamas and the rockets.

Ryne's project
A cute little piggy that they both had to pet :)

Tractor Pull
Alexis' project

We really weren't to impressed with the fair this year. They did have a little petting zoo set up that was really neat. And my kids actually touched the animals. You'd be so proud pappaw. They LOVED the petting zoo. They also liked seeing their projects of course. Ryne did the tractor pull for the first time. He had alot of fun doing that and it was extra special because great mammaw and great pappaw were there and we didn't know they were going. The kids were so excited when they saw that there was a bobcat there. Well they had fun even if there wasn't much that's all that matters. We went in all the barns at least twice, except the sheep barn and the pig barn. The sheep barn because they are to loud in the words of Ryne and the pig barn because I am paranoid that a pig will come after us.

Fun Day!!!

The aftermath!!!
OOPS!! I forgot to turn this one. That is what she won.

The smoke house. Really a good idea.

We went to the fun day at County Market on saturday, the kids had so much fun. They had a smoke house Ryne went in it 4 times I didn't think I was ever going to get him to leave, He LOVED it. They got alot of neat prizes. They both won a prize from the drawing. Ryne won a swimming pool and Alexis won bubble bath and a swim ring.

Swimming

Today we went swimming with Carter, Briley, Hadyn, Macie, and Shelby. It was so much fun. We were there for about 41/2 hours. Now everyone is tired and cranky. Ryne can touch the bottom now and Alexis has figured out that if she has floaties and and ring on she is o.k. I was a really nice day. Thanks aunt Stacy!!

Boating

Josh and the kids got to go boating with everyone on Saturday. I had to work so I couldn't go. They all had a really good time. I have been told that Ryne LOVES the new raft. I will get to see him on it sometime this summer I am sure.

4th of July

We had a great 4th. We went and visited at Candy's with everyone. ALL DAY!! Sorry Candy if your house was a mess. Then we went and watched fireworks with mammaw Paula. It was really nice and we haven't spent much time with her lately.

Columbia Park

The eagle's nest

Diggin' for dino bones

And of course we all love watching the eagles

The kids love going to Columbia park. I also like it, it's cheap!!! They had a great time on this day we got to do everything and see alot of the animals. We however, like any other time forgot the bread for the ducks. Thank goodness Mammaw Paula is on the way she saved us with crackers. So for the first time we got to feed the ducks. YAY!!!!
