Fair

Here are some pictures from our adventures at the Onslow County Fair last night. We went early in the afternoon and met up with Kenny and Stacy, and their kids Mitchell and Miranda. We had such a great time, played a few games, ate some good ole fair food, and rode rides. I ate the best funnel cake I've ever had last night. It was so thick, hot, a little crispy on the outside, but still a little gooey on the inside! Wonderful! Also had a bite of a fried snickers for the first time, yummo! We had a blast, Hudson and Lily talked about it all the way to school this morning! You know kids, they were dreaming of living there!

Lily's first ride of the evening, the Frog Hopper!

Lily and me on Pharaoh's Fury

Lily's attempt to climb the ladder

Didn't quite make it!


Hudson's attempt to climb the ladder!

So close!

Bumper cars! This was one of the favorite things to do! They had an excuse to hit each other!

The caterpillar roller coaster, Lily in front, Hudson in back.

Hudson and Lily on the swings

Hudson's favorite ride, the Cliff Hanger! (Mitchell, Lily, Hudson)

Miranda and Lily on the Fun Slide!

Mitchell and Hudson took a turn on the slide.

And then Stacy and I decided we ought to take a turn too!

They got a little bored waiting for the pizza, so we had a photo shoot! The silly face picture is much more fun than the serious face pose!

Lily's favorite ride, The Disko! She is my dare devil, would've ridden everything if we let her!

A few pictures from our weekend

Don't you just love the rainboots? They look so clean now, by the end of the day, all our boots were up to our calves in red, clay mud! My boys- Hudson's ready to race! Randy is ready for the mud!
Lily, Randy, Hudson, and Dustin (one of our racing buddies)
Trent, me, Becky- three crazy racing mommas! Lily took this picture, too bad she cut off our feet- we all had some pretty cute black rain boots on!

Spring Cleaning!

Doesn't spring make you just want to clean and organize your house from top to bottom? Well, that is just what I did last weekend! I spent hours in the kids rooms cleaning and organizing, and throwing out all those things they don't need or want anymore! I also destroyed the evidence before they got home! I was feeling quite ambitious, and I am so proud of myself for getting everything on my list accomplished! I cleaned bathrooms, stairs, carpets, did laundry, made dinner and banana pudding for my hubby, swept and mopped floors, dusted, I could go on and on...Since I work everday, and we are gone racing on most weekends, sometimes things get pushed to the back burner. Well, since the kids were with their mom last weekend, I had the choice to either sit and relax, which I did some, or clean! And I chose cleaning, and I am so glad that I did. Now I can enjoy time with my husband, and the kids! I think we are all going to the track this afternoon, and I am so excited. I have not seen the kids since Sunday, and that was only for an hour, in between picking them up from their mom's and letting them go spend a few days with Randy's parents. The weather is gorgeous, sunny and mid-70s. It will be wonderful to get outside and have family-time!

I found this "meez" on another person's blog, I thought the knitting was so cute! I almost put her, well it's supposed to be me, on the beach knitting! But I'll save that one for my mom!
