County Fair


This week (Sept 22-28) the county fair is in town. We brought the boys on family night. They had a farmers market there where the boys got to milk a cow, gather eggs, plant flowers, cut down trees, and pick fruit. Then they brought it to "Market" and recieved play money for their goods. Then they got to go to the gift shop and buy things with their money. They LOVED it. William loved the rides. Matthew liked certain rides. Other rides he was horrified but he was a trooper and did everything (he was tall enough to do) that Big Brother did. William's friend Halle was there as well. She rode some rides with William and Matthew.










Matthew cutting down the trees for furniture and paper.

William's turn!
Gather the eggs! Matthew is getting his egg first. He is hard to see.
William miking the cow. Matthew looking on. Video at end!

William's favorite ride. He went on this by himself. Made Mommy really sad. He was not afraid at all. He loved it.

Of course what county fair is complete without tractors!
Petting the hen!
Matthew planting his seeds and picking his crop!
William picking his fruit. One red, one yellow and one green!

William rode the big slide by himself as well. It took him about 10 min. to climb the stairs to the top. The first time he carried the mat by himself and had the whole ride waiting on him to get to the top. The second time the workers helped him so it would go a little faster.

Milking the cow!


This was the first ride we put Matthew on. It was a little bumpy. He was not a fan of this ride!

This was the boys other favorite ride. William wanted to be in the engine. Matthew rode with Halle. He was hysterical. Everyone around was loving his face. He was a riot!

Here is William on the slide. He loved it. He went down 4 times. It is a longer video be patient he starts down around 14 seconds.
