See You at the Fair, Homie.

Elsa and I hit the fair earlier in the week. She was begging to go back so we brought Aaron, Paul and Lindsey along with us.

First thing's first. Try out large lawn mowers. The consensus is that these lawn mowers are big.

Lindsey and Aaron do their best Mona Lisa impression.

Paul had to stop a number of times to dig for his wallet. His new purse is big and does hold lots of very necessary things but sometimes those things are hard to find.

This little baby lamb was born at the fair. I love this lamb. I wanted to take it home with me. Aaron put the kibosh on that.

I think some of the buildings at the fair are pretty cool looking.

The Summit guys finally figured out how to put beer on a stick. Naturally, because we are at the fair and because we love us some Summits, we HAD to have us some Summits, on a stick. Yum!

8th Grade Redux

We brought Royal on a much needed trip to the dog park this past Friday. I must say, this dog is truly A-MAZE-ING. We were at the dog park for a good hour and this dog did not stop running. Not for nothin'! He blew my mind! He is a fast dog too. Real fast. No joke. In addition to his impressive endurance and stamina, Royal demonstrated how he is able to climb very large trees.

Royal was also willing to demonstrate his fearlessness in jumping off of said large trees. He is such a show off!

I am not sure if you have ever been to the Minnehaha Dog Park? I have to say that it is a beautiful park and a lovely place to spend some time. I would suggest a visit even if you don't have a dog. You could hike around for hours, climb some cliffs, chill by the river, be one with nature, the whole kit 'n caboodle.

Here are my Boys. Are they not the handsomest pair of handsome devils you have ever seen?

Here's me and my Girl. Rip was amused by my outfit. He thought I looked like an 8th grader. I thought that was funny.
