Absolutely Beautiful Sunflowers

Some of the farmers in Northern MD plant huge fields of sunflowers and people love visit & take tons of pictures.  Saw lots of parents trying to convince their kids to smile....yup I was one of them - even bribed Lilah that we could go to Chick-a-lay if she would smile for me - LOL.

Walked down to the fields and boy were Lilah & Ady excited that there were three horses there getting their pictures taken too!  After we saw the horses they didn't care about the sunflowers anymore.  The girls riding the horses were so nice and let the girls pet the horses - they were very patient horses too.  Ady kept "talking" and pointing to the horses and Lilah was telling her "Ady go ahead and pet 'em."






























And the horses!!




Lilah wanted her picture with the horse, but this was as close as she would get








Fair Fun

Our local fair started last Friday & it was also the only day that we could go too.  Another plus it was $1 night! $1 per person (the girls were free) and each ride was $1/ticket person instead of the usual 3-4 tickets per person/ride.

Lilah can ride a few rides by herself & there were four rides that Ady could even ride with mommy or daddy.  Both our girls love rides, we did try the tall slide that you sit on a burlap bag - Lilah wasn't a big fan of that one but the rest were great!

The girls were worn our when we left around 8:30 - for some that is an early night, for us that was late!  But well worth the fun we had :)

Mmmm starting off with some frozen yogurt


We saw Elsa!!! (the cow)

Sheldon & Leonard were there to!

They really wanted to pet the cows







Piglets born just a few hours before we got there!
