2014 White County Fair

On Saturday, Colton woke up just as excited as me, that it was the first day of the county fair!! I'm SO thankful that he loves it as much as I do, and that the countdown to when he can take projects has begun! Though we were at the Fair Saturday evening, and again on Sunday to work with Chicken Fry...I took Tuesday off work to head to the fair with the kiddos, and we added Kendall to our bunch. She's a good friend from Colton's class, and they've grown up at daycare together. She's a great kid, and we had a FUN day!!


FFA Petting Zoo

They loved the chickens pecking their hands!


We even found Aunt Sarah's Extension Homemakers Entries!
Colton, Kendall, Chase & Emmalyn on the Combine!

They got to walk goats when we visited the Goat Barn!

Em ran into friend Gracie from Pam's! Such fun!



We watched the pig show for a good portion of the morning...and Jim Humphrey's got to experience Miss Em.

They tried to act at lunch like they weren't having ANY fun...LIARS!

We spent the afternoon in Gram & Gramps Pool!


Bathing beauty!


What day at Gram & Gramps wouldn't be complete without a Ranger Ride!

Back to the Fair for Fun & Games! They were stoked to spend their own spending money!


 We went back to the fair again on Wednesday ...but could have easily spent every day and night there!! We love the fair, and we're teaching Daddy how to love it too! ;)

Get Well Soon, Grandpa Kent

 Here's the best way to share Dad's video. Thank you all so much for submitting the clips. This really made him smile (and say some funny things the first time we watched soon after anesthesia). I think it will be treasured company this evening in the hospital. Thank you for your prayers, your thoughts, for answering the phone calls and lifting Dad up. We appreciate all your love and support.  58E2238E-D2E3-4B38-9FF6-AE1E502ABD14.mp4

Covid ... the end. (Hopefully. Maybe. I really don't know....)

 Almost two years ago, exactly, our world drastically changed. Everyone holed up at home, scared to enter the world and catch Covid 19/Corona Virus. (Except Jason, once he got to feeling better from most likely having Covid before it was a known thing, he just went to work everyday like nothing had changed). The world basically shut down  -- special hours, curbside pick up encouraged, no dining room service only drive through or carryout. If someone coughed or sneezed anywhere near you, you were instantly suspicious. Our parents lived on complete edge and worry, taking in every ounce of information the news was constantly throwing in their faces. It was a time of great uncertainty, lots of information being thrown at us from trusted news sources, social media, and hearsay from those in the medical profession.  We spent March to May just trying to figure out our new life. No baseball. No softball. Lots of time with our animals. Lots of crafts. School from home. Porch drop ...

April - Hey Batter, Batter...

April is always the month that makes us think spring is FINALLY here, because it's starting to warm up, suns starting to shine more, except when we finally get to the baseball/softball fields, it's just as cold as it was in February. Thankfully, Emmalyn had an indoor sport to carry us through the cold of the month, until baseball/softball really got kicked off! Emmalyn tried something new this year and participated in CiVic vollebyall. This is a club program out of Carroll County, and she practiced every Sunday from January through April. Finally in late April she had three play dates. One Saturday we played up at Fairmount, IN. Grandma Jacki, Keaton and I went with Emmalyn, while Dad, Grandpa and Colton cut down some trees in preparation for our spring projects. Emmalyn and Mae Ella did a wonderful job for their team, both rocked their serving and seemed to know the game and keep their cool better than some on the team. The second weekend Dad, Em & Mom traveled to Triton H...
