Fair Days


We attended the county fair last week. It was actually a little cooler that day than it has been. We entered Liam into the Cute Baby contest in the 2 to 3 year old category. People kept asking if we had entered Maggie. I think they were a bit worried because she's so stinkin' cute.

I'll admit. Those contests are a bit sad. Showcasing your kids in front of complete strangers just to get some silly ribbon. Also, one of the elements on the score card that I saw laying on the tables was the healthiness of the child. Really? So, where does that leave special needs children? It doesn't seem fair. In my opinion, it should always be based on personality.

Liam has plenty of personality and cuteness to spare.


I thought the kids would be super excited to ride the motorcycles.

Well...

they scared Liam. Poor baby.


The train ride was a better fit.

Maggie won a cute dolphin at the "Go Fish" game.

And Matthew came along for the ride. He was a trooper.
