Week at the fair

We've spent the last week at the Defiance County Fair- it was a little wet- Grandma took most of the pictures of the water all over the campground, so hopefully she will post them soon so we can steal them :0
I love milkshakes and wasn't about to share anything with Miguel...

Fun at the Henry County fair

Petting the baby cow- this one was born early Friday morning at the fair- there was another one there that was born Sunday during the kiddy pedal tractor pull.
Playing in the old schoolhouse...
This was my favorite part of the fair- sitting in the farm bureau tent for 45 minutes playing with the corn and tractors- mom finally made me move on to the animal barns or we'd probably still be sitting there.... I think I have all my farming done for the week- we talked to Grandpa and told him to put this in his farm bureau tent at the Defiance Co Fair next week and that's where you'll be able to find me......
Here I am trying out the 4-H projects- hey daddy, can you build me this bench?

Grand champion pig
This is how Ethan drives a tractor.....



Like father, like son....

daddy was sitting on the counter, so I had to crawl up there too....
We're so happy to have our daddy back after a week fishing in Canada- and as much as we like Grandma's house, mommy and I were glad to be back home too (although mommy's on nights again for 2 more weeks, so not quite back to normal yet)

Fun at Grandma's House...


Ethan's favorite hobby- finding the camera and taking as many pictures as he can- we usually find the camera full of pictures and dead batteries......

Ethan and Miguel hanging out at Grandma's- we're having a good time spending the week at Grandma's house since daddy is fishing in Canada with the Ney Jaycee's (grandpa is fishing too)

Notice the yellow gerbil dressed like a chicken- it plays the chicken dance when you press the button, so Ethan and Miguel press the button and run around the room until the music stops- the have done this the past 2 afternoons- they should both sleep good tonight

Water, Water Everywhere


Swimming in his car, which he loves this year- last year he wouldn't even touch it!

More pond pictures- my favorite place to be!

(Almost) All the grandkids at the Fritz party on Sunday- notice Ethan is almost off the table- we interrupted him playing on the tractors to take this picture and he was not going to cooperate with us at all.

Naked Ethan hanging around our house- even with the air conditioning, 95 degrees is still hot...

Giving his biggest smile while swimming in the pond- he loves to yell "I swimming, watch me mommy!!"
