Who Doesn't Love The Fair??

McKamey children certainly know how to appreciate a good, wholesome, family filled day at the fair. All of them look forward to it all year and are anxious to go as soon as they know that the 4th of July is approaching. Really, even though it hardly changes at all from year to year, I don't think I could ever get sick of the fair. Especially with my kids. It's just so fun...watching them have fun. A few highlights for the kids this year.
 HUGE games for the kids to play!
 Conner was very impressed by the Huge transformer. 
 Grammy (who is a total sucker...) got her teeth a few shades whiter :)
 We enjoyed some stinky, smelly animals. 
 We ate....
 ...and ate...
 ...and ate! (After all, that is what a fair is all about)
 And of course riding the horses! This is probably my favorite thing to watch the kids do. Makes me remember being a kid and how much I loved the horse rides.

 Last year Kellen opted out of the horse ride. This year he wised up and joined in! (make your mama proud little boy!)
 Carys took to the horses no problem at all. She was thrilled with the whole event. She got into the rhythm of the horse and bounced up and down the whole ride. So Cute!

While we were at the fair there was a home made ice cream demonstration where they showed how to make ice cream in a gallon bag. It takes a lot of shaking and some patience, but it actually works. It was fun to come home from the fair and get to try it out at home (well, at Grammy's house). The kids loved it! Kellen by far was the best and hardest ice cream maker of them all. But then again, that's the sort of thing Kellen loves!
 What a great Grammy! We love her more than she will ever know and appreciate all the fun things she does for us, all the time we have with her, all the hard work she puts into our Sunday dinners with them. I know it is something our kids will always cherish.

 And in the end the ice cream turned out pretty good. Carys certainly appreciated it.
And then there is the Con....our silly, silly boy. So grateful for him and his constant comic relief!
