Fall Festival

 This was our one outing this weekend... St. Rose of Lima Fall Festival in Milton.  We relaxed most of the weekend and then decided to get out and do something fun today.  Let me just say I am glad we didn't set our expectations high!  The whole time we where there all I could think about was coming home to take a bath and especially scrub my feet. There were a few booths there with nothing too interesting, several food booths, some carnival rides and a "petting zoo".  Of course Grady wanted to see the animals in the petting zoo which consisted of a pig, three goats, a cow (I think?), a couple of rabbits, and turtles.  THRILLING!  The pig (named Bacon, who could have become a member of our family for a mere $30) would NOT stop jumping on me and rubbing its snotty, dirty snout all over my legs.  Grady especially enjoyed this, however it only enhanced my desire to come home and take a shower.  Who knew a pig even jumps???  The man told me if I quit backing away Bacon would stop because he thought I was playing. I guess I was sending the wrong signal.   Once I lured Grady out of the stink pit, we wandered around for a  few more minutes and I continued to observe outrageous clothing choices and lovely hair styles (mullets).  I tried to snap a few pictures of these people on the sly, but when your camera requires its own special bag, has a giant neck strap, and a lens that is 6 inches long, it's a little hard to be quick and secretive.  But, man, I REALLYwanted to get a shot of the tie dye shirt under the daisy duke jean overalls.  To be honest, I really felt silly for even bringing a camera and using it!  I only took a couple of pics...

And this is just hilarious to me... Grady likes to wear Mikey's tube socks with NOTHING else... and he pulls the socks all the way up to his heiny. He walks around like this all day. He is pretty much over the diapers. He is doing really great with using the potty (or the grass!), so I am ok with letting him go diaperless! He's such a nut!
