Another fun day at the fair with the special addition of my parents. It is so nice having them close! The girls mostly love the rides, so we try to see the animals and booths in the morning and during snack breaks. The chickens and bunnies are always a favorite and the 4-H/agriculture exhibits were well done this year.
Ruby wanted a mermaid themed party this year and it was fun to plan. The weather wasn’t planned but it turned out to be beautiful day so we played a few mermaid games outside. Toss-the-pearl, pearl relay race, and rescue the sea animals were perfect outdoor games. The kids also enjoyed mermaid tail cupcakes, playing pin-the-tail on the mermaid, and making glittery slime. Ruby had lots of fun with her special friends (some new and some old) and getting to open some pretty fun presents 🙂
We had a few days of snow this week. Todd stayed home from work and the neighborhood kids had no school so lots of time to play! We built a small sledding hill in our backyard then Todd helped make our neighbor Marla’s hill into a large sled run 🙂
