Hot Air Balloon Fest 2013




I'm way behind in my posts but am trying to catch up! Earlier this summer we went to the annual hot air balloon fest in Jackson with our neighbors. It was just as fun as last year and we loved watching all the balloons launch into the air!







This is a great tradition that we have started and we will definitely be going back again next year!

The Chelsea Fair


The Chelsea Fair is this week so of course Brett and I had to check it out! Like me, the animals were his favorite part (and the games were a close second, especially when he won a Light Saber!). He also loved the hobby barn where he saw all sorts of lego creations. "I want to do that next year, mommy!" is what he told me :-) Lego Club here we come!

Everyone needs a little love sometimes :-)

Brett loved the bunnies! I told him we will get him one when he is older (sorry Kyle!) :-)

 The Miracle of Life barn was another highlight. We watched these newly hatched chicks for a long time, and this one had lots to tell us :-)There was also an incubator where you could watch the chicks hatch out of their eggs! 

 Brett even got to milk a cow! Okay, maybe it wasn't real, but he still thought it was pretty cool :-)

"Smile!" :-)

And of course no trip to the fair is complete without pretending to be the farm animals! Oink oink.....

Neigh!
