Labor Day weekend is traditionally a busy one for our family because there are many local fairs and parties, (add to that the Air Show) and a myriad of other events one could attend. This past weekend was also my 20th year high school reunion. I had decided I was not going to attend until about an hour before the scheduled time. I ended up going anyhow and had such a fun time. I laughed out loud quite a bit and saw many old friends. I always fear social functions but they usually exceed my expectations by quite a bit.
Anyhow, on Sunday, after a very early Mass, we made the drive to Mike's parents' house. Mike's folks live about an hour and a half from us and their county fair is the best around. We met his family and spent the day roaming the grounds, riding kiddie rides, eating far too much fair food, petting sheep and milking cows with cousins. Then we did it all again yesterday, only closer to home (at a different fair) and my mother joined us.
I thought you might like to see some photos. Sorry I can't share the fair food but I had sweet tea and a steak sandwich (for those of you who were wondering. :)
Tons of fun had by all. We are taking a couple of days to catch up on the house and get things running smoothly again around here. :) Have a great day today!
