Fair
Howdy Ya'll,
This post promises to be an Epic in the style of TLOTR trilogy, long arduous, possibly boring in parts, full of scenery and itself. First news. Sam of Samventure fame turned 5 years old on the 24th! Wooooh! He's gotten a lot mellower and a lot grayer like the good wizard pre Transformation. He's a Darn good dog. Here's his pic.
In other news we went to the AV fair. They have a deal where you can bring 5 cans of food per adult and get in w/ a ride ticket so we've done that the last 2 years. It was hot and smelled pretty bad. Especially this part.
I don't know if you've ever walked through an enclosed space full of fowl but it smells worse than you can imagine.
We ate Cherry flavored Ice. "A" wasn't sure how he felt about it at first.
T and Z rode some rides while A and I hung out.
Z practiced milking a cow.
The fair was fun and tiring, and hot and dusty but good. One of the hardest parts was dragging a stroller back through the loose gravel parking lot. Here is T struggling. Before you judge, I had the bigger stroller.
Then this week to beat the heat we took the kids to Chuck E Cheese! It actually wasn't that bad. you can spend a lot of time for $3.50 since everything is 0.25. Some things might not have been worth even that much, but most things were and it was 109 outside so at least inside was not outside.
A has 6 teeth now and is getting much better at pushing things around but he's a little tentative when there's nothing to hold on to so he hasn't officially taken his first step. I'm sure it'll be soon.
He is convinced there is a ghost in the house. She haunts him and steals all his toys. He says "she's 2". Whatever that means. She wails and moans and whines and sometimes hides in the curtains.
This is him practicing his mean face so he can scare off the ghost.
Z thinks that joke was lame.
Other randomness. I've started my semester, T starts 5th grade after labor day. now pictures.
So how was that for huge eh?
RTSZA OUT!

I liked your ghost story. That picture of Z in the curtains is funny. Your kids make cute/funny facial expressions.
That was huge. Epic. I liked it. There is nothing like being in an enclosed space with tons of smelly animals. One of the reasons we love the rodeo...
Your kids are so cute. I like the pic of Z creeping in the curtains.
Enjoy your last day and a half before you go back to school, T!
Can't wait to see you guys soon. Well, it's not THAT soon, but I think about it a lot, so it seems sooner than it is.
That wasn't that long. Lots of pics so I didn't get bored.
Your pics below are pretty sweet.

Your little family is having such fun this summer. Little A. is a happy guy and Z. has such beautiful blond hair. I miss watching them grow. Enjoy your teaching this year!
