As we do every year, we again camped at the Iowa State Fair. Mom and Dad got a new camper this year and Decker could not wait to go camping and sleep in the bunk beds! Jeff was at school the first week so my parents took Decker for a couple of days when the fair started and I joined them for the weekend. The next weekend we went back with Jeff for more fun. We ate lots of great food, spent fun time with family and friends in the campground and made it to the fair for a couple hours each day. On the way home the last day Decker got such a sad look on his face and said "I miss the fair already, can we do that every weekend?"

One of Decker's favorite things at the fair - checking out the farm equipment
I love how we caught his lips making the motor noise!

The kids with their maracas and hats Pampa bought for them after the show at Fun Forest was over. They didn't want to give up their maracas so of course Pampa to the rescue!
Decker loved the horses this year. Here him and Pampa are watching them practice.

great to see your belly, Tricia and your hair has gotten so long since last time I saw you. I like the t-shirt traditions and such that you and your parents do for the grandkids. Something to look forward to each year.
I so wish we could take our kids to the fair every year, it is so fun!! Loved seeing all your pics, you look great. Won't be much longer!!
