The Fair

We have spent a lot of the past week hanging out at the fair. Kelsey has loved every minute of it, except maybe the minute when we had to leave. Since it is free to get in, it makes it so easy for us to go for just a few hours here and there. The weather was great this year! There were definitely moments where it was pretty steamy, but we always managed to find some shade.





Kelsey loved the rides this year! She was fortunate to have the boys as her riding buddies, especially Connor who always seemed to watch out for her. She even got brave enough to try some on her own. She liked the swings and motorcycles the best. In a close second were the airplanes, merry-go-round, train, and whales.




She also went on rides with Daddy, Mommy, Aunt Diane, Aunt Stacey and Grandma.



Who can forget the food? Here we are about to eat a "spaghetti" ice cream sundae.

Kelsey's other favorite love was the piggy races! She would say" piggies gonna run" and then point her arm out in front of me to demonstrate what she meant by run. Too cute :) There is also a picture of her milking a pretend cow.


We managed to take in some shows and entertainment. We even saw polkas! Can't beat that! She loved dancing with everyone.



Kelsey played the ducky game and won a wonderful trumpet complete with sound. Here is Daddy giving her a trumpet lesson called don't swallow the mouthpiece!

It was a great week! It is bittersweet because the end of the fair means school is here! Better take in the last few days with our Kelsey girl...
