County Fair

In August we went to the Rockingham County Fair.  For the first time Grace got to ride one of the amusement park rides.

She met a boy in line and instantly they acted like best friends.

 And they chose to ride in the same tea cup.  They had the best time and we could hear their laughter over all of the noise of the fair and the machine.  I was so happy that Grace is so outgoing.

 Later we went in the building that has the companies set up as advertisements.  A lawn ornaments company was there and Grace and Glen loved the waterfall that was set up at their booth.

 Then Glen found the tractors...

 He was determined to drive the tractor.

 And Grace did not want to be left out so she found a blue one.

It was a fun night.  So much to do, so much to see.

Summer Reading Ending Program

The summer reading program started with the play of the True Story Of The Three Little Pigs.  And it ended with a program by the Sciencetellers.  These are story tellers that add science into the story.

 Grace, Glen and I attended.  Grace was front row and center and very excited about it all.

 Glen was just happy he had a few trains to play with.

 Grace got called up to do an experiment.

 I believe that it had to do with dish soap and dry ice.  To say the least it made a bit of a mess.  But it was fun and a great program.

 Which ended with cake and punch for all who attended.

What a yummy and fun way to end a summer of reading.
