Day 62: Talent Show at the Fair

This is something I have always wanted to do.  It was so fun, and I met some really amazing people.  I won 3rd place, some fabulous prizes, AND the audience choice award, which was $62 cash!  Very cool!

Day 61: First Major League Game!

Gabe and Daddy got to do the coolest thing:  Go to a Royals Game!  It was Gabe's first major league game.  (He seriously loves his Dad.)

Apparently, Gabe was pretty serious in the beginning.  There were fireworks.  Loud noises always freak him out a little.  BUT, his big cousin Samuel caught a ball for him during batting practice.

I told him that our Pastor is a big baseball fan, and he said "I should take this to church to show Mister Kerry."  Then he insisted on taking it to Grammies to play.

Fantastic Memories.

Day 60: The Animal Fair

Those chickens were loud, which led Ell to some of his nervous defense behaviors.

The "lean on mommy."

The "pretend to be asleep."

But the goats were a big hit.

Day 59: Another Lake Day

Jacob had some extended family in town so we packed fair week with fun.  Here are some pics.  Our boys ate SO much.

Day 58: The Rain Came Down and ...

the flood came up.

Apparently the low point of our "street" is in front of our house.

It wasn't very long, but we had a great downpour.  The boys were a bit nervous, but we went outside to "play the drums" with God.

These are some concerned faces.
