a fair is a veritable smorgasbord

We took Ayda to the state fair, it was fun. I like to go for the people watching, and believe you me there are a lot of people to watch. We go for the rides, Ayda loves them.
She does them all by herself, she is fearless.

Could her bangs be any cuter?! How are they always so perfect? I want that hair cut! I still love to people watch too and aside from the airport and Walmart, I am sure the state fair is the next best thing! Mike always has to bump me because I am not always so discrete when I people watch. I just can't help it!

Did she get a big fat belly like Templeton and roll around on it?

ps - she looks terrified of the tiger ride - sher khan

Besides airports, and third world countries, fairs are the best for people watching!
Ayda is so big I can't believe it! Completely fearless... keep your eyes on that one!

I have witnessed the dare devil in Ayda! When we had her for a few days, I couldn't believe the things she climbed on all by herself! She was right up there with the 5-10 year olds!! She's my kind-a gal!

You'll have to visit Indiana in the summer and go to the different town fairs — best people watching by far. I've been to a town fair in Cedar Lake, IN ... ask Travis about that town. Here is one of my favorite quotes from that trip (I was with my friend, Scott): "Win a bunny fo' yo' hunny."

This new Gower grandchild is going to have stiff competition in Ayda. She's just too adorable.

Hope everything is going well. I miss you all.

I took Carsie to the Weber County Fair with Harmony and ya, I agree, the crowd there is even worse than what you get at Lagoon. Too bad you guys aren't still close, Carson and Ayda would have a REAL good time being fearless pals together.

We used to go that fair every year as kids. It's a good one. Looks like she had fun. Awesome Charlotte's Web refrence too!:)

You guys are always so active and doing something...I love it. People watching is my #1 hobbie. Whenever we go out to eat, Brett always knows to let me sit where I can see the most amount of people. : )
