The Fair

This morning we went to the Williamson County Fair with Meme and John. Despite the horrendous heat, we all had a great time.

The animal races were a huge hit! They were hysterical. We saw pigs, goats, and ducks race.

When we could no longer take the heat, we went inside to the air conditioned arena area which was filled with booths and activities of all kind. Even a really neat dog agility contest where (mostly) retrievers jumped into a huge swimming pool to retrieve a thrown ball. It was very entertaining.


Ryan came home and took a 3 hour nap (Hallelujah!) I was holding him for a minute after he woke up and he looked at me and said "this is a great day!" Amen, Ryan!

I wish JW would be more transparent about his political leanings.

Looks like y'all had so much fun! Ryan looks like he has grown so much since leaving Knoxville :( He is still precious (and so is Will).
