summer to do

Country Fair – Check that off the Summer to do list!

Posted by Carolyn on July 12, 2015 2 Comments

b20150712_114342 I put this on my summer bucket list because I know – from past summers – that if we don’t plan for this, it passes us by.   When Fair weekend comes, it’s easy to just say it’s too hot or too expensive or too dirty or too something.  I knew that if it was on our to do list, we’d make it to the Country Fair.  This was also on my 35 Things To Do Before I Turn 35 list. b20150712_114750 We went with our friends the Henrys and it was a lot of fun!  The kids were a great age for just wandering, exploring, and eating our way through the Fair. b20150712_115059 This rainbow thing was a favorite for the kids.  While we were playing here, it started raining.  I should take a moment to mention how lucky we got with the weather.  It was mild, cloudy, warm, and a little rainy.  Perfect.b20150712_121208 Alma’s not looking, but I had to post this to prove that I was there, too.b20150712_122515I love how all the kids were accidentally color coordinated.  It made it easy to locate them as they wandered down the paths. b20150712_122939This fairy world was another favorite for all the kids.  I so totally want to make something like this!  It was amazing. b20150712_124320Our kids did a super job walking most of the time, but they also enjoyed a wide variety of methods of being carried. b20150712_130555There was a quick moment when we lost Finley and Cedar.  Obviously, they were dancing with giant wolves.  Duh. b20150712_133333The aftermath.  Cute, hot, tired, dirty babies.  So glad we went to the Country Fair this year.  It’s an experience that I am happy to share with family friends. b20150712_144759I’ve been updating our summer to do list.  You can check out the updates here!

If God said, ‘Rumi pay homage to everything that has helped you enter my arms,’ there would not be one experience of my life, not one thought, not one feeling, nor any act, I would not bow to. -Rumi
