Fair Week!

In the past when Shaun has had his summers off- we have been able to spend a good portion of Fair Week at the fair.  However- this year we only got to have the weekend- so we had to squeeze every last drop of fun out of the few days we had available to us.  

We took the kids in to have a look at the animals...  Kate kept her distance from most of them...

And Ty was thinking he was pretty cool and tough by touching the nose of this little pig.  However- when the pig turned to look at him... my little city boy jumped clear out of my camera's lens range and this was what I was left with.  It made me giggle though- so I kept it.

Ryan took some time to goof off around papa's 4-wheeler...

I also had the chance to snap a few pictures of Grandpa JayBird and Grandma Dorothy while they were at the house one evening...

And it was onto the RODEO!  I have to admit- I look forward to the rodeo all summer long.  I love it!  And my kids love it- I hope we do it until we are all too old and decrepit to make it up the bleacher steps anymore.

Chad, Jeni and baby Carson joined us for the rodeo too (along with Grandma and Grandpa).  Though- I guess I should quit calling him baby Carson- he turned one this week!!

 And what Fair Week post would be complete without a family picture of us at the rodeo?  I think I have a picture of us in this same spot for as many years as we have been coming to the rodeo.
