Sean and Aleece

Today’s activities were a little turned around compared to the last 3 days.  On Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday we had our activities in the morning and early afternoon and the kids had early bed times.  Today we took it easy this morning and had the main activity at night.

This morning we went to the park and had breakfast then played on the playground a bit.  We walked around the lake twice and Leif and I made a sand castle.  Well, ok…I made the sand castle and Leif just threw rocks and sand in the lake, but he WAS close to me when I was building.  While we were at the park the puppet wagon stopped by and gave a show.  After the show we went home and had lunch then put the kids down for a nap.

After the nap we went to our main activity of the day…

The county fair again.

On Tuesday we went to the fair in the morning.  We looked at animals and exhibits.  But by the time any vendors or rides opened up the kids pretty much had it.  That was ok, Aleece and I had planned on that.  That’s why we went to the fair tonight.  By giving the kids a quiet morning and making sure they got naps we were able to go to the fair later in the day and the kids could survive.

My parents met us at the fair, of course as soon as the kids saw grandma and grandpa they RAN to them.

The very first thing Leif wanted to do was play a game.  He even won a prize!

Now for the rides.  The green bug is first.

Look!  It’s that hottie in the sunglasses again!  Man I am luck to have her follow me around.

Next ride was some race cars.

Then a spinning barrel thing.  Leif looks a little scared in that picture, but let me tell you he really was not scared at all.  He loved it!

Leif was too short to ride the dragon roller coaster alone so I got to ride with him.

On to the bug ride, this one is different…it is red, not green.

Ah, inflatable slides.  Those things are fun.

Leif does not have fear.  If those other kids are too slow to go down Leif pushes right past them, but he pushes politely.

Climbing back up for another turn.

Wow, this was a very tiring day.  Very fun, but tireing.  When we got home it took Kalven about 15 min to be in bed asleep and Leif was downstairs watching TV for 35 min before he asked to go to bed.

Tomorrow…the childrens museum.
