Fair






On Saturday, we went to a fair that was representative of things in the era of "Tom Sawyer" in conjunction with the efforts of the city to inspire the community to read the classic tale. We had a great time. The girls learned to play "marbles," raced in three legged races, gunny sacks, balanced eggs on a spoon and did a cake walk, to name a few things. It was so fun to watch the girls get excited about everything. While we were walking back to the car, little Aubs took my hand and said, "Thanks mom, for taking us to this fun fair!" One of those little moments... :)

*P.S. Grandma Quick - did you see the fun old fashioned sewing machine? It looks like the one on display in your sewing room. The girls each got a book mark stitched with the machine at the fair.

Your last few posts have made me hungry for beautiful weather. The fair looked like so much fun! Your girls are just darling (as always) and I love Aubreys "thank you". So cute. Those moments are my favorite too :)

Are you sure you want to move back to Utah? It's still gray and snowy here!
