OUR DAY AT THE FAIR
Our first stop was at the "Helping Hands" farm. It was so cute. The idea behind it being to help out with chores around the farm, like picking corn and feeding the fake chickens, planting some vegies, and other farm activities. Well, Cale was having none of it! Actually cryed! He just cut across to the tractors so he could ride around a bit...then we were done. He was not doing any chores on his vacation day! He even threw a huge red pepper on the ground in protest! So, needless to say, after the tractor ride, we split!
...this is about the most work he did at the farm...
And of course we couldn't bring Cale to the fair without trying some good ole' fair food! Jason loves the roasted corn, and we soon found out that so does Cale! But I guess why would we have figured otherwise, right?
Cale LOVED the merry-go-round! He had a really hard time deciding which horse to pick. As soon as he sat on one, he saw another he liked better. He picked the black one by default cuz the ride was about to start! He kept waving to Daddy on the sidelines and petting the horse's hair. But as soon as the ride started to slow down, that bottom lip started quivering, and and soon as the ride stopped, he started to cry! He could have rode on there all day long! Next year Cale!
I actually wouldn't have minded going again either....it was kinda fun!


Last but not least, we ended our day visiting with our buddies Kate, Kirk, and Brady! The little guys hadn't seen each other in quite a few months, so they kinda had to get reaquainted! Brady says "I like your nuk, Cale." and Cale said "thanks man, nice shirt!" Cale was caught in the act of brushing Brady's hand off of his arm. Now Cale knows how all the other kids at the park feel when he runs up to them and starts touching their legs and gets the total brush off!
