It’s the Iowa State Fair!

Yesterday, Jason, Anya and I made our way over to the Iowa State Fair for an afternoon/evening of fun. We didn’t get a real early start since we went when Jason & I were both done working, but the 5 hours or so we were there were alot of fun. We ate at the Pork tent, had a chocolate dipped nut-roll and some ice cream…so we didn’t do too bad in the food department. We also ran into a lot of people that we haven’t seen in awhile, so that was fun too. The highlight of the day was Jason and Anya going down the giant slide…as soon as Anya saw the slide her little eyes lite up and there was no telling her no….she was smiles the whole way down! Here are a few pictures of their trip down….

Today we made a trip to the mall to do some Hawkeye shopping…Jason was worried he didn’t have enough Hawkeye shirts to get him through the long football season ahead. Ya right….he wears a Hawkeye shirt every day of the week and still has some he hasn’t taken the tags off of. But, if that’s what makes him happy….

Now we are just hanging out at home…Anya is napping and Jason is getting alittle work done. I decided to vacuum out the van and was that was quite a job. It looked like there had been a goldfish cracker explosion in there….my goodness. Tonight Chad & Jodi are coming over for supper and we are going to grill and just hang out. We don’t get to see them quite as often now that we live on opposite sides of this great city!

    It sounds like we were at the fair at the same time. Too bad we didn’t know that then, we could have caught up with each other. It looks like the slide was pretty fun. Maybe we’ll tackle that next year.
