we had a nice visit from Dad and Patty at the end of august. one of the things we did was to visit The Chester Fair. as we'd never been before, we weren't sure what to expect. as it turns out, it's a nice, fairly typical small to medium sized fair. all the usual fair staples were represented: the food, the rides, and everyone's favorite, Robinson's Racing Pigs. :) to no one's surprise, Arwyn loved the rides. she did not, however, like to get off the rides. yes, much crying ensued, but she recovered quickly. like any good fair there were plenty of animals to visit.
in one of the more amusing events of the weekend, Arwyn acquired a plastic goose from an estate sale in town. thanks to Grandpa for finding this gem and for buying it - a dollar well spent! a month later the goose is generally seen hanging out in our living room, often adorned with a hat. don't worry, animal activists, he gets outdoors time as well. we're cage free here, ok?no day would be complete without a day at the park, of course. Arwyn's just as big as fan as ever of swings and slides. it can be a little challenging to get her to leave the park, especially if other kids are around - or if the town fife and drum corps is practicing. that said, a walk to the park and the ensuing flurry of playtime can be just the thing to wind down an energetic child, right? :)
