 Visiting the Monroe County Fair, here we see Jared getting ready to ride the Swinger, or as I like to refer to it as the "Vomitator"  Devin's got a couple years yet before he can dive into rides like that  Up, up and away!  Whee, I love it Daddy!  Here's a shot of Mama and the boy riding the Scrambler  Jared exploring the funhouse  Mama and Jared about to ride the Chinese dragon mini-coaster  Devin was such a good boy, though he did get sick of being in his stroller after a bit. Of course, who wouldn't with all this happening around you?  There they go down the main hill of this massive roller coaster  Jared exploring the animal displays  Hello Mr. Turkey, is your name Thanksgiving or Christmas?  The fair has a neat little permanent mini-train too  Very cool, of course we had to take it for a spin  Here's a shot of the engine  Jared signing up to be a deputy Sheriff for our county. Respect his authoritah!  Climbing the stairs for the Fun Slide (Where do they come up with these fantastic ride names?)  Ready... Set...  Go! Wheeeeeeee!  Devin has had enough, time for a nice relaxing afternoon nap  Big brother sure hasn't though  Here he goes working towards his learner's permit  This is cool Dad, can I drive home?  The big boy back on the Swinger  This time Mama gets in on the fun  Our pride & joy enjoying a nice big cardboard box  A few pages ago I promised some penguin shots from the Toledo Zoo  Well, here's one now, enjoying a nice refreshing swim  Here's the rest of the clan relaxing on the penninsula  In the new Nature's Neighborhood area of the zoo, they have a little squishy baby pond  Devin LOVED it  Daddy and Jared visited the Michigan Reniassance Festival as we're apt to do annually. Here we see the Queen blessing the upcoming games  The champions  The blue knight represented us  The Lady of the Lists directing the games  Full contact jousting, the highlight of the faire  The Lady reprimanding the purple knight for a foul  Our knight advancing for battle  First the green knight falls  Then the red  Jared posing with our champion!  Visiting Gigi's in wisconsin, here's Daddy with his little one, ready to mow the lawn  Now a shot of the littlest one wanting to help too. Soon enough son, soon enough  The boys playing with some Thomas trains  Here we are at Wisconsin Dells, visiting a place called Lost Canyon  It's a cool, horse-drawn ride through some very cool rock formations  The guide was pretty cool too, cracking jokes here and there  Some of the passages were very tight  Very tight  Some places in these caverns have not seen direct sunlight for millenia  Also, local indians used this area as a meeting place and shelter in years past  Visiting the Riverside and Great Northern Railway  Jared violating the hands-in rule, but what a cute shot  Devin loved it for sure  Daddy and his train-loving boys  Gigi feeding her littlest great-grandson some yummy oatmeal  Time to go home, but we'll be back soon!  Back home, our little spartans taking a rest on their bench  Jared enjoying a nice P-jelly lunch in the boys' playhouse |
