It is official!

Summer is over. I am so sad. It was not long enough and not hot enough. I didn't get to do all the things with the kids I had wanted to do. The days went too quickly. We did squeeze every last drop out of it that we could and we have lots of great memories. I didn't take any pictures when we were in Utah, but we had a great time there and miss our family too much!

With the end of summer comes the New York state fair. This year Kris was just too busy to go so we went with Veronica and her kids and Darise and her kids. We were very out numbered, 11 kids in all! The kids had fun seeing the animals and watching a wild animal show. Joshua still talks about the snake that tried to get him. Samantha got sick so we left the rest of the group a little early, but not before consuming some greasy, sugary fair food on our way out!

It was a good way to end the summer. Although, I hate to let it end.

How many kids can milk one cow??? Well, at least 6...
This has to be the cleanest cow I have ever seen, the little girls did not want to stop touching it!

Wow, all those years in NY and I never went to the state fair! Sounds like fun. Our Dutchess county fair was ok, but I'm sure not as big. I bet you're excited for the eastern fall colors! I miss them SO MUCH!!!
