Mimi loves county fairs. She's also one of those people who enjoy the smell of horse poo. So when I realized she would be visiting on the last day of our local county fair, we just had to go.
Athena had already been there with her class earlier this week so she gave us the guided tour:
"The pigs just lay down and they have flies all over them" (it was true).
"The pigs just lay down and they have flies all over them" (it was true).
The girls opted for facepainting over pony rides.
The Dude sort of liked the toy tractor and corn pit but was a little too fastidious to really dig in.
He preferred the art area or "creation station" better.
The mini-circus was lame but Athena enjoyed loudly telling us what the magician and juggler were just about to do.
It was hot, it was dusty, but it was a great day. We're so happy to have our Mimi back on the West Coast from such a loooong trip in New York. She left in June and in little people time that is forever. They did not want to leave her side for a minute today and Athena kept saying
"Today is a celebration, Mimi's home!"

Looks fun! With the weather we are having right now, something like that would be perfect. (I wore a hoodie this morning and ate lunch outside today ON PURPOSE. It is lovely here.)
Such good friends they are.....and so lucky to have each other.
Yay for Mimi being home!
And I have to tell you that every time I see a picture of Athena and Zoe holding hands, my heart seems to skip a beat. Such sweetness!
I have agree with AJ- OMG they are precious!!
THE MAGIC MAN IS ABOUT TO HIDE THE COIN IN HIS EAR BUT IT ISN'T REALLY THERE! IT'S IN HIS POCKET!
I love Athena so much.
