FIRSTS AND THE FAIR

I gave Noah his first haircut.  I had three different old ladies question his gender in two days...His hair was almost long enough for pigtails so i don't blame them! Notice the tear. ha ha ha he didn't like it much but he looks SO HANDSOME!!! 

First Pavlova since Nana and Grandpa moved to Australia! Cheers!

First real steps! On the beach- how fitting!!! My little beach bum...and speaking of little beach bums...

Noah got his first pair of Australian bathers!!!

His first job " off duty, LIFESAVER"

THE FAIR!!

We actually had the best time we have ever had at the Fair! We got there when it opened so it only cost us $4 to get in!

Noelle lassoed a bull! GREAT PIC huh!?!!!

Chloe did a great job too, but I think she had her eyes closed! yee haw!

Everyone was in such a good mood! Not a cranky one in the bunch!

Cheap ride! 25 cents and the girls thought it was hilarious!

Even though Fair food is Extremely expensive...we had the most delicious German sausage with onions and peppers! SO WORTH IT!

"AAAAW"

Dippin dots and mom and dad shared a funnel cake YUMMMMM~!

The girls really wanted to go on this slide, even Chloe with no hesitation.  When they got to the bottom poor Chloe was as white as a ghost and said " I DON'T EVER WANT TO DO THAT AGAIN!"
We topped off the day with a trip to our favorite place at our favorite time of day! There is nothing like the beach in late summer after dinner!




When we got home we parked out front and I found that our front steps are a great back drop for cute pictures!

LOVE THE GARDNER GANG! Ham, Cheese and Pickle!

Merivale, these pictures are amazing, and MY grandchildren are the cutest kids ever! Chloe looks so tall, and Noah is not a baby anymore...Noelle looks more grown-up too. Oh, they are so beautiful, it hurts!

I cant get over how grown up your little kiddies are. Can I even call them little? Brad and Abe have an east coast meeting coming up. You should come and bring the kids. It would be fun to get everyone together. (when I say coming up I mean like months away- but still...)
