Teamwork

I watched this unfold after lunch...
1. push chair up to island
2. climb onto the island (and dance)
3. get in the sink
4. squirt soap on everything
5. turn on water...
I think they were trying to wash their hands!

NC State Fair

We all enjoyed our very first NC State Fair!
Max studied his surroundings carefully - enjoying the animals and lemonade the most!

Kate screamed and pointed at everything - the louder it was the more she liked it!
