Another beautiful day at the fair! It seems like we always pick the one day when it doesn't rain. The kids had a blast. We were afraid Jake would be too timid to do any of the rides or pet any of the animals but he surprised us. Once he realized he could ride a train and a helicopter we couldn't keep him off them. He went down the giant slide with daddy and then took off running back up the stairs to do it again. He didn't pay any heed to the fact that there was a huge line behind the gate and he had to give the guy more tickets! He got to slide again, but he had to wait impatiently in line again first. Jordan had fun this year too. She LOVED the animals and she loved staring at all there was to see. She practiced her walking while we waited in lines for rides with Jake.

The funniest part of the day happened while we were strolling through some of the fairway and Jake declared he had to go potty. In the two seconds it took for Darrin and I to turn away and look for a bathroom, Jake had dropped his pants and peed on a trash can. I almost walked away and left him there. Fortunately, all the witnesses thought it was hilarious. No citations for public urination!
