SIT BACK AND ENJOY THE POST

We took the girls to the fair on Monday.  Christian took the day off and we dropped Landen off at Christian's mom's house.  It was a bit chilly to start but then warmed up a lot and turned into a beautiful day.  Andrew and Lisa met us there and ate lots of deep fried junk food.  It was amazing. (This next part is for my brother Luke)  We ate deep fried snickers, a funnel cake, cotton candy, deep fried pickles, and a hot dog.  I believe that is all.  It was all wonderful.  I think next year I'll have a frozen chocolate banana, more deep fried pickles, and another deep fried snickers for sure!  Yes, I do plan in advanced what I plan on eating each year.  It's soooo good!  We actually only go to the fair for the food.  However, this year Christian got tickets for some kiddie rides.  The girls were able to ride 3 rides each.  We had to choose wisely though since Mia is too short for some rides.  One ride they went on was a mini roller coaster which we thought they would freak out on.  But they were cheesin from ear to ear the whole time.  They loved it!  We also went to the petting zoo area and are happy to say that we did not catch any life threatening diseases there.  Kalea really loved feeding the goats and petting them.  Mia... not so much.  Thus Andrew holding her almost the whole time.  

On a side note, can I just say how EXCITED I am that Lisa and Andrew are pregnant.  And since Lisa says everybody pretty much already knows that they're expecting I figure I can blog about it:)  Sorry Lisa!  Anyways, I love these guys so much and am so excited to see their little family grow!!  It's such an amazing experience for them.  They've been so wonderful with our girls.  The girls absolutely adore Lisa and Andrew!  It's funny to think back because when we first met them, every time Mia would look at Andrew she would start to cry hysterically.  And every time that would happen Andrew would just say, "One day you'll love me."  And she does!  We all do!  Ok, that's my the end of my sappy public display of affection for you guys :)

Okay, one more funny story.  When we were younger I remember going to petting zoos on occasion.  On this particular occasion I remember my little brother Lane getting rammed in the stomach by a goat that did not take kindly to him.  For some reason that gets me HYSTERICALLY LAUGHING!!!
