Pennsylvania Farm Show 2009 (and Jim's visit)











Pennsylvania's Number One Industry is Agriculture! Duh!!
We went to the farm show in Harrisburg 2 different days. The first to see the animals, butter sculpture, etc. The second time we went to the Rodeo. That was quite fun--no pics though. The kids had a blast watching the events (as usual--we miss the rodeos of the west) and their first dose of cotton candy. Natalie thought it was quite cool. Can you see Natalie on stage learning an Irish dance (that was from the first evening)--red shirt, jeans, between two costumed dancers? Next year we will plan better so we can spend days there not just evenings.
Uncle Jim Fry came for a visit the other day. He is so good with the kids and they absolutely adore him. Everett said his name all night. And for Ev-dog that is saying a lot.

I've never taken my kids to the farm show and was considering it this year. Next year we'll for sure go.
Are you settled enough to plan a play date probably in Feb.?
