A Fair to Remember

Me and the boys just spent part of last week up in Honeyville for the county fair. Shara & Abby flew in on Wednesday and we (along with Tawn) picked them up from the airport and then headed home for the parade. Which Lucas was so not into! Even the candy wasn't that appealing. We left about half way through and headed out to my dad's booth at the fair. It's always stressful for my dad, and I'm sure it wasn't much easier this year with all the kiddos, but we had a good time. Jed was able to come up on Friday to spend the rest of the weekend with us.

Unfortunately there was a flu bug going around and my kids & Tawn got it Thursday night (in the middle of the night, which means I got zippo sleep) and all day Friday. They were pretty darn miserable. Shara came down with it Friday night and my mom, dad & Jess got it Saturday night. I was feeling fine until Sunday and then it hit, and it was awful! Jed came home from work today with it. Now we've all had it, and we better never get it again!

Despite the sickness, we had a great time being together, just hanging out, and cooking to death in the hot heat!


My little cowboy.


Apparently the fire engines were a bit much!


Mom and her girls... we suprised my dad by having t-shirts made with his logo.


Shara being all fancy and eating some delicious homemade ice cream.


The best we could do for a cousin picture.


This little girl thinks she's so funny... and she is!


Jed practicing his selling techniques on Shara.


Lucas and Logan on the dragon. It took him a minute to smile, but in the end a much better experience than this!

Wow! Sorry about the flu bug. I'm glad we were only around for the first day and didn't get the same thing!
