Fair-age

We were at camp last week in Iowa.. Darin was the bible speaker. It was SO fun! Thanks for all the comments about my Adie and Wee-wee.. it was so fun to come back to them. =)

Round these parts we love a good Fair. Like yesterday there was a 3 hour parade that started 3 miles from the Fairgrounds and ended at the grandstands. Darin, Adie and I walked in it with our church. It was awesome. About 15 guys carried a 20x12 ft cross and the walkers wore shirts that said "Why?" and we handed out $2 bills with an explanation of why Jesus died on the cross for us. Invited them to church and hopefully the $2 for gas money will help get them there. It was awesome. Adie rode on Darin's back in a back pack the entire time.. she practiced her parade waive and then fell asleep and had great bobble head for the rest of the walk. I also had two gals yell from the sidewalk..

"I'm a blog lurker! I read every post!"

So a big shout out to Jodi and her sister! Thanks for the reads, girls! And you know what else I found out couple of weeks ago? A NURSE from Dr. Fu's office is a blog reader. She totally read my post about me accidently telling Darin to "F-U" when I spelled out our new Dr. Fu's name. Guess they had a good laugh at the office. Don't worry.. it won't be the last. At Adie's old Dr. as they were weighing her I couldn't understand why the scale was reading that Adie weighed 30 some pounds until I realize that I was leaning on the scale. Oops. So next time we are there please introduce yourself! I usually like to meet the people that I've totally embarassed myself with! And now I know not to lean on the scale so we can get a good read of Adie's weight. So embarassing...

Okay so that was a bunny trail. Walking in the parade was so, so fun. =) But before I share Fair pictures from yesterday I want to go down another bunny trail to show you Adie's new skills with a spoon.. or lack-there-of....

Here she is using her spoon with her yogurt.


And here she is showing her ham-age with her spoon-ism-ness.

And yes. I may over-use the "age" behind words today. Because that's how I feel like rollin'.

Here we are so happy to be at the Fair! And so happy that the ice cream at the dairy bar is only $2. The ONLY thing at the Fair that's only $2. Even the elephant ears went up to $5.. seriously! it's fried dough. Anywho...

Here she is at the baby animal farm. Looking at a baby horse. Captain Obvious here.

And here is my husband feeding my child to a goat. I'm pretty sure the goat hadn't had his serving of cute for the day!

(Hanni.. Adie's wearing the outfit you got her and Rachel.. thanks for the cutso Nike's! I wouldn't let her walk in the horse doo so her Nike's would be spared. You'd be proud.)

And I did not play with these pictures.. My Adie and Darin are my little malibu babies!

And remember when I was wondering if Adie's hair would be curly?

Her curly fro-age cracks me up in this humidity. =)

That had nothing to do with the Fair. But I'm just sayin'...
