The First Of Many At The County Fair



We went to County Fair this weekend with some of our neighbors and had a wonderful time! Daniel got to do several new things for the first time: He touched a sheep and a duck, learned to milk a "cow", played in a "corn box", saw and/or heard the sounds of cows, goats, sheep, donkey and alpacas, and even rode a Pony! Have a look at the slide show below (to download photos or see larger, click on slide show and you will be taken to Picasa):




One of the highlights of the trip was that the 3 toddlers got really excited together about playing inside this empty wooden house/shed. I even caught them on video, so check it out!




We just feel so blessed that our neighbors are now friends of ours and that our children love each other! This is definitely an answer to prayer which we are very grateful for!

  4. The fair looks great! and Daniel looks so healthy and happy, he runs so well, compare that to Christmas time. Ask J if it reminded him of the Fordingbridge fair at all..

  5. Ana, we actually went to the Howard County Fair this weekend too -- on Saturday from about 3:30 - 6 pm. It's an annual tradition in our household. I know Corinne doesn't like the State Fair, but we actually think it's even more fun than the Howard County Fair because there are horses there as well as the other animals plus a children's area to look at animals. :)

  6. Granny Heather, yes, Jonny said the fair did remind him of Fordingbridge! And it amazes us too to see Daniel already running!

    Kristen, I can't believe you were there too on the same day! We went in the morning but I hope to next time go in the afternoon cause none of the rides were open. When is the State Fair? It sounds great! I had never really known about the fairs so this was a great discovery for us.
