Fair time

Nothing says the first day of fall like going to the fair!  Fair food, the smell of farm animals,expensive rides....love love it!  This was Alyssa's first experience riding rides..... sitting there waiting for the ride to start she wasn't too sure.  Of course, when the ride was over, she didn't want to get out and let out that scream she does.When you go to a fair, you have to visit the pigs, cows, chickens and sheep!  Neither one of the girls would get very close to the animals.  So we were watching these kids try to throw ping pong balls into these small fish bowls and you won a fish if you made it.  I'm thinking there is NO way Trinity is going to make it in a bowl, and it was only $2 so why not let her try it.  Thats when Jamie decided to throw a few and guess what.....we came home with two fish of our very own!  boo....I mean Yay....we have fish!   It's not that I want to deprive my kids of having fish, I just know who is going to be the cleaner of the fish tank.  ME....cleaning out the fish poop!  Sounds fun huh?  Trinity was excited so I guess it was worth it right? How long can goldfish live anyway?  :-)  Their names are Goldie (because she's gold.....duh!) and Rosetta (because she loves that name and why didn't we name her that). 

Welcome to our family....you wonderful pooping fish!
