Washington County Fair

We went to the Washington County Fair with the Veeks. I had my camera in the car and didn't try to turn it on until Micah fell asleep on the way there and I wanted to take a picture, but the batteries were dead. I was very sad. But wanted to remember the experiance, so whilst i write about things that happend this year, you can gaze at some of the pics from last year. This year we saw part of a bird show, watched "Dock Dogs"(dogs jumping into water from a dock), Saw the farm animals, (Micah was intrigued by the cow getting milked by a machine, Noah wanted to see more horses), We watched the winning 4H cow get bid on, we ate some way over priced food and caught the end of a magic/comedy show. The hot and ready light was on at Krispy Creams, so we did grab one of those on the way home. All in all it was kind of a crazy trip, but the kids did seem to have some fun. Sierra asked me if we ever go to the fairs in Utah, I said nope. She asked why not, and I didn't have an answer. It really made me think though. On a different note seeing the animals just made John and I hope to one day get some acerage and have those horses, and... well maybe not any other animals, but the horses for sure. So...this is what it was about last year... This is Micah and Mylisa. Too little to ride rides, but still old enough to have fun together. I think Micah was mostly picking on her here, just gearn' up for Deeken. Just Micah in her cute overalls. I think little girls look so cute in overalls. I can't believe how much she has changed in a year. Still got that sass though. This is Mylisa. Who is she? Well if you don't know it is a long story to tell, but she was like a daughter to our friends Bryce and Brenley Wilberger. She needed love and and they needed to give some love and they gave it to each other till Mylisa's mom needed her back. They keep in touch still and always will. This is Noah with two girls from our ward, Brianna and Kennedy. They are both older than him, I think he likes it that way. He got to go on a few rides with them and had a GREAT time! We had fun with the Veeks this year and the Wilbergers last year. Above all doing fun things like this with our friends show that we are home bodies and without great friends who come up with the plan and get us to go with them we would probably not get out much. We love all the wonderful friends we have made here.

This really made me miss you guys alot, and we have missed out on the entire summer fun with you. It makes me sad. We had so much fun with you last year, I can't believe how little Mylisa looks.

How come you don't remember going to the fairs with your family. Maybe because it was Tooo Dirty and TOOOO hot and toooo smelly. But we went anyway and we had fun.
I love the pictures and the ones that you sent us.
Micah is still sassy and Noah is still a girl magnet.
