6.5 hours.  It was by FAR the longest we have ever spent at the fair.  The boys had a great time.  We saw piglets, Lama Obstacle Course, and they rode the mechanical bull.  B 29 seconds, G 30 seconds!

The pig butt makes me laugh.  She reminds me of the hippo from Madagascar.

Daddy was at the ER show last weekend, so the boys and I went to the neighbors and celebrated the end of summer with a cook out and bonfire.

Back in June, Michelle and I took the boys to their 1st concert (not officially, since they have seen ER, Kix and LA Guns), but I guess their official 1st one in an indoor venue.  We had fun and they sang all the NEW dance songs that are played on 95.1 and stations similar.  I am amazed at how many I actually knew.  😉

Stephen (Tony’s cousin) showed Joli how family trees work, she was not happy with his people representations.  So she asked for descriptions of us and re-drew it.

Back in May, the boys made these at our favorite ceramic studio in Waynesboro.  They are both dogs.  🙂

We have been doing monthly dinner out nights and each month someone else gets to pic the location.  In June, G picked Chuck E Cheese and I must say….I had a GREAT TIME!  You can now buy time vs. points (or coins).  In about an hour, Broc and I managed to rack up 1000 tixs.  Pretty cool.   I think this was our last outing, so hopefully we can pick them back up again soon.

Congrats B&G for coming up with an idea, a drawing and then finally the final product.  With help from Tony (nice job DAD!) they are now making some pocket money for their piggy banks.  G also deserves a lot of credit.  He initiated the idea, drawing the plans on one of our trips to the eye doctor and then followed through with it.  B has been very handy and helpful when it came to painting, grabbing stuff from the garden and manning the stand.

They stayed by the stand for a couple of days and waved at all the cars.  I think they finally realized that they did not have to always be there.  🙂
