4H Fair

We went to the 4H Fair today. Lauren was dancing today along with many others from her dance studio. She did tap & hip hop. She did great as always. It was a nice day for it, not to hot. They had some games for the kids to play, food, animals, bouncy house, etc. Laci & Braedon went right to the games first! They were cute. Then Laci saw the bunnies & that was it! She's now begging for one. There must have been about 25 of them there. All different colors, sizes & breeds. There were 4 black & white babies that were 2 months old that she pretty much stayed with. Carrying them like babies. She loves animals, maybe she'll end up being a vet when she's older. Here's some of the hip hop dance, my camera died so I wasn't able to get some of her tap.
Braedon watching to see if he's a winner.BowlingI thought this was pretty cool. Instead of sand they used corn. The kids liked it too!Another nice day with the kids. They didn't want to leave. As long as they are happy & having fun then Mom is happy!

Halloween in August

This weekend at my mom's camper it was Halloween in August. They have activities all weekend & trick or treat for all the kids. The kids love it because that's twice a year they get to go trick or treating. Lauren & my mom got back from Maine yesterday so they met us up there. The kids went for a quick swim before dinner then it was time to get ready. Lauren dressed up as a Stop sign, pretty creative huh! She had everyone cracking up & she won for most creative costume! Laci dressed up as a zombie bride, Braedon dressed as Thomas the Train & Rylan was a dalmation. He wasn't in a very good mood though so I didn't get any pics of him. After trick or treat there is a costume contest for most original, cutest, scariest, prettiest & best costume. Like I said earlier Lauren won for most original & my niece Isabella won cutest. They also have a haunted house so once it gets dark it opens up for all the kids to go through.Isabella the butterfly.The contest winners!The whole group minus Rylan.The haunted house.
