I need to start this blog by saying that I just finished reading the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo and it was awesome! Dark, but great. Anyway...

We got to go to the fair!!! I love the fair. Where does all of this hot white trash live during the rest of the year? We ate fried cheese curds (well, Sulli and Ben did), twisted taters, a tater pig, a fantastic chicken salad that a woman made me at the chicken pita stand, and Sulli had his first corn-dog, or 'dog-corn' as he calls it. Fair food, almost as good as ballpark food.

We also finished part of our basement and turned it into a playroom for Sulli. It is pretty cool!

Painting the wood pannelling in Sulli's playroom. Note the disgusting pinkish asbestos floor tiles.

Lots of babies in town this year. These 2 stayed in our neighbors yard almost all day.

Pool weather finally!

We lost one of the chickies during our Flathead vacation. The remaining 2 chicks are laying 1 egg almost every day. One has become extremely friendly too.

Rocks!

Sulli fills his pool

We got one raspberry from our new bushes which Sulli promptly ate. Then he ripped off the 2 non-ripe raspberries too. Kids are so destructive!

Thank godness they are cute.

Fair! Ben is wearing his fair outfit, he wore it last year too if you recall.

Dog-corn!! Ben thinks this picture looks like Sulli is munching on some sort of amputated limb. He's right but I love this picture!

Sleepy pig

A cute 4H-er sitting on her pig.

So he is surrounded on both sides by miniature horses and he would rather run up and down this hose...

This still makes me want to drop $20 to try to throw a ring on top of a bottle!

Next year he will demand we win him one of these!

Bye bye fair

A little bit of GNP going to the sun road!
