Yesterday Auggie and I rode with Auntie Michelle, Kendall and Addison to Elkhorn to partake in the Walworth County Fair (Daddy's hometown fair). We met Grandpa and Grandma Toynton there and had a fun-filled day!
Hugs!!
Moooo....
Our little flower and his cousin the rooster.
Time for ice cream!
We made several attempts to get Auggie to ride on various motorcycles, cars and truck rides to no avail. Once I put his little bottom on the seat he would say, "I don't want it." Here Auggie "rides" vicariously through watching Kendall and Addison.
Holding hands and walking with Grandpa Toynton.
Grandma Toynton is helping Auggie pick out ducks in his first fair game of the day. Every duck Auggie picked was orange, his favorite color.
Auntie Michelle took Auggie down the giant slide, his only active participation in a ride at the fair.
Grandpa hoisting Auggie up for a "Cowdak" moment.
Auggie was smitten with the baby piglets.
Petting the baby calf, saying "soft, nice."
The kids had a blast jumping into bins of corn and soybeans-a favorite past-time of any red blooded American?
Checking out the miniature farm equipment. I couldn't resist buying Auggie a miniature John Deere tractor and hay wagon just like his Great Grandpa Julius used to drive.
Kendall "operating heavy machinery" at the fair with her sidekick cousin.
If you've read our blog in the past you are already aware of Auggie's devotion to lawn mowers. This photo marks a monumental moment in this two-year-olds life: riding a real lawn mower for the first time!
We had such a great time at the fair with our family. Grandpa and Grandma Toynton were too generous (Auggie walked away with multiple prizes and memories to treasure until next year's fair). Thanks Grandpa and Grandma Toynton! Thanks Auntie Michelle for carting us around all day!
