A Few of our Favorite Things...


We just returned from the PA Farm Show. For those of you who do not know what this is, it's a huge indoor livestock and farm exposition that lasts upwards of 9 days. It includes a rodeo, and is one of our family's favorite things to do around here in the course of a year.

Gabe and Abby really enjoy the sensory area. they can pay in a huge pile of corn, collect eggs, milk a cow, pick apples...and most importantly they get their own basket to collect all this in and haul around for upwards of an hour! They love it! ...except for the clowns, but hten I have never been fond of them either. =O)

The giant carousel is also a family favorite. Lydia enjoys looking around at the wool spinning booth, hair wrap stand, and quilt making area. And she realy likes the rodeo. Today, she bought a straw hat with her own money. A very heart felt and thought out purchase!

We also like going around to all the food vendors and sampling the many tasty treats: ice cream, cheeses, salsas, pretzels, jerkey...you name it, it's here!
