Welcome: 4th file, 4th picture and further evidence that I have boys

Michelle tagged me with a post your fourth picture from your fourth file. Her's was of she and Chloe getting reading on the 4th of July. Mine is of Jacob getting his pumpkins ready when he was 4. Cowinkeedink???

So much to get to in this post. Let's start by showing you how Jacob looks this morning.

That's what happens when you get into it with your bigger brother.

J/K, I wish that was the case. Unfortuneatly I have a feeling I am in for a lot of this with him as he has this internal drive for bigger and better stunts. This time he fell off his bike and landed on Daddy's plow...OW! Thank god it had a rubber cover on it. I can only imagine if it didn't. I just want to know if my sister has any pictures of her girls like this. Boys, boys, boys.

I never did get to posting about last weekend. On Saturday, Chris and I went all over.

We were in search of a pharmacy as we both forgot some medication. It sucks to get old. We ran into Santa's reindeer on our way to Norway.

They look a bit boney right now but they are fattening up. Let all the kiddos know that they will be ready by December. We put in a few special requests for them to give to the big guy in the North Pole. I'll let you know if they pan out.

The colors didn't look that vivid. I think the wacky summer weather took a toll on it with all of the rain. But the big picture looks pretty good.

The next day we were off to the fair. We spent quite a bit of time in the 'boy' section.

And then we went to the horse pulls. That was one of my Dad's favorite parts. We didn't get to stay too long due to some short attention spans. I know the horses live to do it, being work horses and all, but I felt bad seeing them have to pull that much weight. Each block is 5oo lbs. At the end they were pulling twice as many blocks @10,750 pounds. Christopher, Daddy's Irish Lad friend, stayed to watch the whole event.

Here are a few more from the day. We had a good time but then still had to drive 4 hours with the traffic. We ate lots of junky food. Between all of us we ate a hamburger, a couple of sausages with onions and peppers, pizza, a blooming onion, caramel apple, hot dog, french fries, a few apple crisps with ice cream, maple cotton candy, roast beef off the spit, chili in a bread bowl and some pork thing on a stick. I think we covered it all.
