Goshen Fair

We went to the Goshen Fair today. It is by far my favorite fair. It's small, but has awesome activities and vendors. Sam loved all the farm animals, and had a great time with Grandpa and Peeps. Her favorite thing to do was eat fair food of course.


Petting the sheep.

Learning about pigs from grandpa Mike.

Getting denied access to the rides.

No rides, no problem. Food is the most fun anyway!

Beardsley Zoo

Today we had a family trip to the Beardsley Zoo. I can't even remember the last time I went to any kind of zoo. We had so much fun. The zoo itself was perfect for little ones. Some of the animal exhibits were a bit questionable, but the animals were clean and looked pretty healthy. (What do you want for small and over 100 years old) Sam loved the bears. Go figure after our bear encounter last week in the driveway. In any case, it was perfect for her and was just enough for her old parents to deal with too.


She pretty much calls all animals "Doggies".


Hated the carousel.


She really loved the peacocks running around.


These were her favorite species of peacocks!


She picked out a bear souvenir that hopefully Murphy won't confiscate.
