RICH COUNTY FAIR
AUGUST 7th - AUGUST 15th...

We were lucky enough not only to experience the fantasticness of a small county fair... but to have Kirk, Angela and Fantastic Family up for a visit.
IT WAS A BLAST!!!
Follow me through the events as they unfolded...

They had a cute little wanted poster outside the Home Arts exhibit, so... what parent wouldn't want to have a cute little picture for posterity? Well, we tried... but the only thing Braedyn was interested in was finding out what it tasted like.


Dave entered his photo of the baby robin's this past Spring. He won Honorable Mention, which is 3RD Place. I am so very proud of him... YAY!!!
He's trying to decide if he wants to enter it into the State Fair.



We woke up on Saturday to a Randolph down pour... thinking that the Parade might be canceled. Luckily... it cleared up minutes before the parade started. It was cold... but worth it!!! How many parades have you seen in your lifetime with a YAK????


Braedyn and Daddy enjoying the Parade...
at 49 degrees!!!




Uncle Kirk and Braedyn watching the Parade ON THE WAY BACK...

Yes, you can watch our parades coming and going.


Later that night... at dark obviously... we sat on our deck and watched the Fabulous end of the Fair Fireworks!

Fresh Air and Fun!!!

The wandering Alders, at it again....
This time we decided to pack up a lunch and head into the mountains,.. Mirror Lake being our final destination. We stopped at a nice little campground, for our lunch of Subway $5 Footlongs. ($5... GOOD) Braedyn had his very own sandwich and thought it was pretty cool.
The Weather was great... 73 degrees, BEAUTIFUL!!!

Braedyn had a great time pushing his stroller around. He's great at walking when he's able to push something around. He couldn't decide whether or not he wanted to push it around or sit on the ground so that he could put wood chips in the basket.


The HAPPY Family, with full tummies!!!


After our picnic stop... we drove on to Mirror Lake. We walked around to the West Side of the Lake and enjoyed the peace and quiet. It is a Beautiful little lake... that I would recommend to anyone. It makes for a great FALL Drive as well.


Braedyn was having a great time discovering nature.
He didn't even try to stick anything in his mouth.


At the end of a long afternoon... a solid nap is definetely the answer.
A Little Video Montage of the Fun!
