State Fair 2010!

Yes, Tony finally relented and let me take Jackson to the State Fair in October. (I am very behind in my posts) The last time he went was way Pre-Shelly and he and his guests were caught in the cross fire of a gang shoot out. Nobody was injured, but having to hit the deck is certainly not something he wanted to repeat.

However, I had to go during the week and during the day. No night time. He even took 1/2 a day off and joined us. My friend Colbie and her little girl Rylee was with us too. Jackson and Rylee are very good friends. In fact, Jackson calls her his "favorite, favorite girl friend".

Tony and the kids on one of the rides. Tony sure looked cute with a little girl on his arm - not enough for us to try and have one of our own. We will just borrow Rylee

I think the kids had fun, but I think I could have bought Jackson a bag of cotton candy and thrown him in the back yard and he would have had just as much fun.

Jackson wasn't too sure of this whole thing

He was giving me instructions on where to stand and how to hold on etc.

So - do we have an annual family tradition? Wait and see!

And something for your funny bone!
