Daniel and his friend, Reb, at Reb Robin.

The never ending song

I sung Daniel the never ending song the other day, you know:

"This is the song that never ends!  Yes, it goes on and on my friend...some people, started singin' it not know'n what it was, and now they're always sing'n it forever just because.  This is the song that never ends..." and on and on and on....

Well, I was singing it in the car to Daniel - over and over - and finally I couldn't take it anymore and had to stop.

Daniel hadn't been saying a word, then this:

Daniel: "Uh, Dad?  If it's the song that never ends, why'd you stop?"

Touche.

A Day at the Fair

 Mommy and the boys went to the Thurston County Fair with Grandma today. It was lots of fun visiting Mommy's old 4H stomping grounds. Daniel is already looking forward to going back when he's a bit bigger so he can go on the rides with Daddy...

 Meeting a pig named Bacon. 

 What a funny llama!

 Matthew teases the llama by blowing raspberries...he apparently hasn't heard that llamas spit when they feel threatened.

 Taking a break from the animals for lunch!

 Both boys loved the cows. There was lots of "moooing," especially from Matthew.

 Petting a chicken.

Newly hatched baby chicks!

And the best way to cool off after a long hot day at the fair? Sno-cones!
