Fairs and Festivals


I took the kids to the Gloucester County 4-H Fair/Peach Festival on Friday, July 25th.  They had a few carnival rides there that the children just loved.  I spent half my mortgage on the bracelets to ride those dang rides.  Oh well, what's shelter vs. the delight of a child on a cheap carni-ride?

How cute are these little kids!  Joey, Lucy, Leah and Robbie.  This little bouncy ride was the favorite.
Leah's first ride.  She loved it.  Robbie even had her put her arms up.  Of course, it went slow emough that I could keep up with it.
This was at the end of our excursion.  We were all hot, tired, sticky and stinky, but they are cute!

Robbie loves to climb.  He has loved to climb since he was a nine month old baby and climbed out of the crib and smack onto the floor.  
Robbie and Joey rode the bull.  Joey was totally thrown off like a shot.  I thought he was going to be hurt but when he got up he was giggling like Beavis or Butthead and said that it was "cool".

We ate peach slushies, which were heavenly.  The kids got to see wolves, bunnies, pigs, cows, horses, goats, cats, birds and reptiles.  Mommy got to sweat her guts out.  But, it was fun.  It's a good thing to do.  I'm glad we went.
