Another fall tradition...

Took P to the state fair yesterday, the last day it was open. We walked and walked and walked. We saw amazing (and some not so amazing) quilts, knitting/crochet, lego creations, and artwork from artists of all ages. We blew a wad of cash to throw MANY darts at MANY balloons to win a prize, a small tiger named, of course, "kitty". We met many ( Read more... )

Yes, it was tiring, but we had fun. They had a "12 and under" age grouping for artwork, so now P has decided she wants to draw something for next year.

Looks fun!

A stuffed tiger? I don't know anything about those! Oh wait, no, E & G have about six million. I swear, our kids may not be real cousins, but they should be! :P

P looks very tall and pre-teenish. :D

I hate the way everything is so expensive. She really wanted a giant spongebob, but after we had worked our way up to the tiger I checked my cash and we only had $6 left, so I gave her the choice of trying to get the spongebob or having nachos. She chose the nachos. That's a Thornton/Murtha for you, when given a choice we always go for the food. ;)

"P looks very tall and pre-teenish" You're telling me! She's got such long legs. I don't know who invented the "scooter" or "skort" but they are my hero, because she loves skirts, and I'm the one making her be practical and wear shorts. The "scooter" is our happy compromise.
