My Snapshots
What have we been up to this past month? Take a look and see:
G and I had told Gv she could paint her nails for the first time as a special reward for a goal she'd been working really hard toward. She said she wanted to wait until Grammy could do it, and it was all very exciting:
 |
| She was waffling between fire-engine red (her favorite color) and sparkly silver in the store. Grammy and I steered her towards the more modest silver color... |
The state fair is a pretty big deal around here and we always have loads of fun going together as a family, but with me stuck on the ice all weekend, G and I decided to sit this year out.
Gv, however, was still jazzed and anxious to proudly wear her 4-H shirt there, so we sent her off with the cousins for probably what was her best day ever at the fair:
 |
| She was so excited to eat this cookie that was as big as her head! |
They ate probably everything that was up for sale, saw all the animals, made all the crafts, watched the pig races and even came home with a trophy from the demolition derby!
She just might not want to go with us ever again!
And since the state fair is such a big deal in these parts, kids usually get a day off school for "Fair Day." Normally, teachers have to work, but this year, G got the day off, too.
But instead of spending it at the fair, we finally made it to our closest National Park Unit for a family day, where Gv earned another Jr. Ranger badge:
Finally, our rink hosted a figure skating competition last weekend. This was Gv's first time competing and...
...she not only skated her heart out, but came home with a gold medal, as well!
