Early in the week we enjoyed some veg out time - lazy time hanging around the house, enjoying it while we can, and decompressing from the week before! Pat had football Monday - Thursday and Liz had cheerleading. Other then that we played, swam, watched Sarah Jane and Will, and made it back to the dentist for that cavity. Pat, by the way, did AWESOME!! The Fair started at the end of the week. The girls and I went Thursday night, Brian and I took the kids on Friday, and then Liz and I went after Pat's first football scrimmage on Saturday to see Bridget Mendler perform. Srah Jane and Ciochi joined us. I have been loving all the Fair time - because I love the Fair!! The kids had all day ride bracelets and were pretty adventurous. Liz loved riding the bumper cars with Brian. She is so animated on rides - it's really fun to watch her.
Patrick seemed to be more interested in the games than the rides - atleast until we finally won an Angry Bird, Ice Bird to be exact.
We bumped in to the Dwyers there and had a quick visist while eating our yummy ice cream.
Every year I take a picture of the kids eating their Fair ice cream. I can't believe how big they are getting, especially when I look back on the older pictures.
Patrick was kinda over the picture, but I got it anyway!
The kids didn't realize there was a mini golf course at the Fair. Of course they had to have a match! Pat managed to almost beat his dad!!
Aren't these moving bushes cool?I tried to get the kids to take a picture with them but they didn't quite know what to make of them.
One big highlight for the day was feeding the garaffe, Melman, and his other exotic friends.
Liz and I had a great day on Saturday, even though it was super hot. The concert was fun. Even though she didn't know alot of the songs she was "singing" and dancing right along. After the show we walked through the Center of Progress building which she loved, much to my surprise. She loved collecting stickers, touching stuff, and watching demonstrations. We scored two Slushy Magic cups for the price of one! We had lunch and ice cream too. On our way out we rode the huge Ferris Wheel together and got a great view of the whole Fair.
Our Slushy Magic's are great. They even make great wine slushies for mommy :) Liz had another special treat on Sunday, a birthday party at Chuck E. Cheese for her friend Tessy, complete with ice cream afterwards. Another great week of summer!!
