Bless her sweet heart.
130 pictures were taken at the fair on Saturday with my camera. This is one out of three that I appear in. Here I am telling Jackson that a donkey says, "HEE HAW! HEE HAW!"
Big Bird bit a girl's finger only seconds before we took this. That's why my boys are way off to the right.
And then the camera died. It was a great day!
I love the look on Jackson's face in the first pic where he's on the tractor/wagon! :)

Oh Amanda, it looks like it really was hot at the fair. Coming from a Grandma..."Jackson looks so hot, his cheeks are so red. Give him lots of water honey." ;)
ReplyDeleteThose poor animals they look sooooo hot too with all that fur and then sitting in sawdust.
I do love all your pictures though. Keep em coming.
haha...the boys in the hen house!
ReplyDeleteand jackson on that tractor..there you go...raise 'em right with the john deer ;) my dad got one after i moved out...i was so sad! always wanted to ride one of those. push mowers are the pits!
haha!! that poor thing under all those wood shavings(?)!! guess she gave up..
thanks for sharing the memories..
Our state fair starts on the 12th and all of your pics made me so excited! I can't wait to take in all of the sights and smells...and definitely lots of fair food!!
ReplyDeleteOh man, there is nothing cuter than a little dude on a Deer. Awesome pics girl! Thanks for sharing. :)
ReplyDeleteThat is the cutest thing I've seen all day! He looks like he was working hard!!
ReplyDeleteblessings,

Uh oh now he is going to want one of those little John Deer tractors. We have one and it has been so loved!!
ReplyDeleteA boy and his tractor - too cute!
Kim

I'm sorry....I couldn't hear you explain how the donkey goes???!!!!
ReplyDeleteHee hee...just kidding.
Love that boy in that apron.
100% ADORABLE!
That looks like so much fun! Glad you had a good day and got to see B2M!
ReplyDeleteOH my goodness! What a fun time!!
ReplyDeleteHe'll be chatting about all those animals for a while I bet.

We are going Friday..your pictures have me really excited to take my two little girls!
ReplyDeleteLove reading your blog!
It's so easy to burn through 100+ pictures in such a fun setting.
ReplyDeleteJackson is adorable, poor hot baby. He looks like the perfect little farmer boy.
Jackson makes an adorable Farmer Jones. Big bird was kind of creepy. He almost got a hold of Rodney's hat. Glad ya'll had a great second round at the fair.
ReplyDeleteHow adorable! I love Jackson on that John Deere tractor!
ReplyDeleteDon'tcha (is that a real word?) just love the state fair!!! My kids love the whole farm exhibit where they can plant their own food and feed the animals and ride the tractors! They can do that at Grandpa's ranch, but not all in 30 mins! Great pictures (love the hen house!)
ReplyDeleteoh Amanda I love the father son pictures. This is so sweet and fun!!
ReplyDeleteThose farmer pictures are SOOO cute! I must take Ava there. I hope we don't pass out in the heat. Did you see some baby pigs? I hope so.
ReplyDeleteLove it!! All of it. You and I have something in common, I am never in any pics either. I try and I accomplish a few but other then that it is always the little ones and My man.
ReplyDeleteIt was hot I can tell. Jackson's cheeks are red in almost every pic but it doesn't look like he cared! What a great smile especially on the John Deere!
Are you familiar with the book "Animals of Farmer Jones"? A definite favorite with my kids. And very appropriate for your family!

Don'tcha just love the fact that kids love animals. God made 'um so dadblasted cute, the kids just can't resist. And parents love kids who love animals--we serve an awesome God!!!! Jackson is really so cute and growing like a weed!!
ReplyDeleteHi, I've been "lurking" for a while, finding you from several friends' blogs, but now I have to say...we're going to the state fair next weekend and your pictures got me so excited!!!!! We were looking at info. online (we live in Ark.) and were wondering, do you have to buy food with coupons or do they take cash? My 3 year old is going to love that "farm". :)

That picture of him on the "John Deere" tractor...that'll make your Texas daddy proud. :-)
ReplyDeletethere aren't many "mommy and me" pictures in our album either!! how is that - my dad always took all thepictures when i was a kid. looks lke great fun. i sure do miss texas. lived there for 10 years!!!
ReplyDeletehave a great day!
Well now, you just know I'm tickled to pieces that I got to see all these pictures!!!! Thank you for sharing them. I think you might be as bad as I am about not getting in any of the pictures. My kids are going to have kids one day who are going to have kids (etc.) and they are going to wonder what I looked like! I despise having my picture made!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm a happy little camper right now. Thank you!
Cathy
The tractor picture! Hehe!
ReplyDeleteThe fair here was lots of fun too (it is apparently the oldest in the nation), but they didn't have corn dogs, or funnel cakes. These New Englanders! Sheesh! lol
I bet your Momma loved those pics, huh? He looks like he is having a ball! I remember taking my son and nephews through the farm area. So cute!
ReplyDeleteOoooooohhhh PLEASE tell me they sang "One Sweet Day"!!
ReplyDeleteLooks like fun!! We will HAVE to find time to go!
ReplyDeleteThose are some great pictures :)
Wow - Texas has awesome Fairs...that petting zoo is the greatest!
ReplyDeleteNorth Alabama's animal petting facilities aren't nearly so sanitary...Am I right in thinkin' you saw our low budget field trip pics to the Poop Zoo? :)
Jackson's getting so big! I can't believe it.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great time was had by all! Jackson is such a little charmer!
ReplyDeletehe's sooo cute, those eyes and that smile! he will be quite the catch one of these days! :)
ReplyDeletequestion, i have been looking at Rob Bell and Donald Miller (so the emergent church movement?)..
well, i really respect how you articulate a balance of your faith, but reality with today's society.. do you mind sharing your opinion one of these days on that whole movement, or at the very least, those authors?
thanks
It looks like he had a big time!
ReplyDeletegosh, he is TOO cute. You need to get him one of those miniature John Deere ride on tractors for Christmas- that would complete the look!!
ReplyDeleteThese are priceless! Its amazing how big Jackson is now! He is a little man!
ReplyDeleteJust precious!
ReplyDeleteAnd, my good friend was there on Sat. also, at the fair. She was just about to bust a gut that Boys to Men were there. :)
Oooh Amanda, I just love your little guy. He is so precious. Whenever you post your pics I just want to grab him, cuddle and kiss those cheeks like only a grandma can.
