"Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal." 2 Corinthians 4:16-18

The Grabill Country Fair

The Grabill Country Fair was this past weekend, and it is so much fun!  It is so family friendly.   It is hard for me not to compare it to the Bluffton Street Fair.  As much as I love the Bluffton Street Fair (I will forever be a faithful Bluffton-ite), the Grabill Fair is so much cleaner.  They have fun things like a blueberry pie eating contest, a nail driving contest, sack races, a cool Christian mime show that a church puts on, and lots of other stuff.  So we went there on Saturday evening and walked around and ate (mozzarella cheese sticks, of course) and stuff.  Kaine went on 2 rides and he loved them!  It was fun.  



Kaine loved riding the airplane...

...and the horsie

As you can see, Halle was also having a blast in her stroller!

It's kind of hard to tell in this picture, but Kaine is sitting on top of the stroller.  This is how we went around at the fair.  Kaine loved it!  And also hard to tell in the picture, but Halle's expression is actually a very happy one.  Her smiles are HUGE lately!

Halle's first time on her daddy's shoulders
 
What a fun fair!  Hopefully we will be able to come to the Bluffton Street Fair next week.  I really need a pineapple whip:)

I'm not sure how you can push that stroller around with Kaine on top of it...I know I've tried to figure out ways he can ride on there with Halle but I don't do a very good job figuring that out! Looks like it was a fun evening and lots of cute pictures:)
love you

You're right about Halle's smiles being huge. She sure gives each smile 100%.

And Kaine on a fair ride? Fairs are so much more fun when you can watch little ones enjoy 'em.

TRAITOR! Nothing is better than eating Pineapple Whips at the Bluffton Street Fair. :)

J/K...I am sure it's a lot nicer and a tad more family friendly!

I always thought Kaine was the cutest kid ever, but I think Halle is going to give him a run for his money.
I'm sure the Grabill fair was fun, but I gurantee Kaine will have a blast next week at street fair.How many ice cream cones is he allowed to eat?
See Ya, Dad S
