Good times!
Loungin' Around
Jordan eating her first bite of Cotton Candy! Yum!
Can you believe Ammie got on a ride?!
Daddy and Tinkie having fun!
We took the girls to the State Fair on Saturday. We had a blast! Barb, Tim, Brady and Tinky drove down in one car and Kendra, Jules and I went in another. This worked out well. Kendra and I had a chance to catch up and pour our souls out to one another. It's funny how there are just certain people in your life that completely understand the ins and outs of "you". (Brady and Kendra are those people for me. I always feel refreshed and renewed when I'm with them.)
Anyway, I wasn't sure how the trip would go. It was hot... at least 100 degrees and Jordan didn't get a nap. Two strikes before we even started. But once again, she surprised us! She was in her element... things to see and do. Brady took her on some rides that she wasn't tall enough for (I guess the carnis don't care as long as daddy goes along for the ride). :) Tinks loves going on the Merry-Go-Round. Kendra got stuck taking her on the things that you sit in and turn and apparently half way through Jordan said she was "All done!" Kendra said she looked bored, lol! Anyway, I asked her a little later in the day to pick a ride to go on and she picked the dragon roller coaster. Brady and I weren't sure if we should let her. It's pretty intense for a little person that's not even two yet. But Brady took her on it. He told her to put her hands in the air and she did, yelling "Wee" the entire time. I couldn't believe it! What a trooper!
Well the rest of the day was spent looking at the exhibits and booths all around. Jordan really enjoyed the petting zoo, although she wasn't sure about a goat that kept coming up to us that was taller than her!
Juliette was an angel as usual. She slept a lot and I was surprised when she didn't seem to be bothered by the heat. We kept cool cloths on her and went in and out of air conditioned buildings all day. Overall, the trip was a success. It was a great reminder of how just being together with the people you love changes in the heart... in a good way that is.
