County Fair Time

Headed on over to see the sights of the county fair yesterday.  William loved climbing up on the tractors out on display, he literally climbed up on all 20 of them one by one.

William enjoyed some rides at the fair the buggy cars were his favorite.

 Chilling in the tractor wheel, according to William he couldn't get out because his hair was stuck with tape to the wheel.

Playing in the new pool

William's old pool popped so out comes a new one to have fun with...

Funny Faces

Water-slide curtsey of the neighbors.  William wouldn't consider going down it last year with the water on, but loves it this year.

Happy 10th Anniversary

Adam and I celebrated 10 years of happy marriage yesterday.  We went out to our favorite Thai restaurant for a lunch date.  We are going to escape for the first time since William was born later in July for a trip to Chicago.  I am very much looking forward to that.  Hard to believe that 10 wonderful years have flown by.  I would marry this guy all over again in a heart beat!

Catching up from the last two weeks.  Last weekend William and I headed to the strawberry farm to pick strawberries and peas.  The wild gobbling of strawberries I saw last year from my pint size picker was replaced this year with a strawberry delivery man.  William went up the row picking a couple strawberries in his little crate then came back to my flat to deliver them, over and over again.  Only the ones I asked if he could help me eat were eaten.  Which was probably okay as since it was raining as we picked, and the strawberries were a bit muddy.  We then picked peas in the pea field and gathered up our goodies and headed home.

The last two weekends we broke out the pool and had fun spraying water, running through the sprinkler and being a pool monster.  For those who are not familiar with pool monsters, a pool monster goes out into the grass, gets covered in grass pieces then crawls back into the pool to wash off the grass.  The pool monster's mother then tries to scoop up all the grass with a net and the cycle repeats itself till the pool monster's mother gives up on cleaning up the grass as she can't keep up.

First ride on a school bus!

Happy Father's Day

Happy Father's Day to all the fathers in our lives.  William is lucky to have such a great Father who cares about him so much and is there for him in every way. We got to celebrate Father's day with three generations as Grandma and Grandpa S are in town to help watch William as I have to travel for training all week.

William and I checked out the Kaytee Learning center this weekend.  Very neat selection of birds and learning games.

Holding and feeding Jade the bird.

Making bird toys, was his favorite thing, must have made 6 or 7.

 We then had a great time visiting our friends Suzy, Ryan and Miss Julianna.  She shared her playset, tent and rocket toys.  They had a fantastic time chasing the little tan moths in the grass as they fluttered from location to location.  There was lots of running and squeeling.

Thanks for a wonderful cook out and fun!
