Tri County Fair! Summertime coming to an end.

Its that time of year my friends and non-friends who read my blog.   That means fried dough, fairs, apple picking, everything fallish. The humidity will slowly dwindle away and we will have chilly nights and luke-warm days. Just how i like it, I personally love fall and i think its what keeps me in new england.  I know for sure it is not the 2 foot snow drifts or icicles hanging off the doorway.






Today we went to the Tri county fair in Northampton, ma. It was definately fun, but i noticed there was not many people there at all. Definately seemed like alot of farmers and people might not of made it where for whatever reason(im guessing hurricane irene, tropical storm whatever). If you are wondering if it is worth going at all i would say yeah for sure its worth it! The tiger show was Very Very good. They let 7 tigers enter the ring and the guy has a handful keeping them from eating him. my kind of entertainment!

BRING it on fall... We fernette's are ready to brave your Wallet emptying, Gut filling, Heartburn creating forces.  Im not affraid and welcome it whole heartedly.   Quick update - Kaylee had open house at ja'duke this last week and she is wicked excited to be going to school. She starts on the 9th of September and will go just monday and fridays half days. we decided she didn't need it for learning but more for social interaction.  Also she will do dance on monday's right after school and shes way excited for that.  Kinda weird seeing her grow up like this .  My niece ella started school and had her first day recently and it made me happy but sad at the same moment. Seems like just yesterday she was so tiny and young.  I just have to accept that it never slows down!  Does it?

Summertime 2011

Its here everyone, Hot days warm nights.  Time to go camping, Swim in the river, go boating etc.  So far this year we have not gotten our boat going and are not sure if it will happen or not. Most likely not. I used to take it out alot more before i hurt my back and Money is tight with my durango kicking the bucket... Still for sale anyone want it :). The 4th of july just passed and it was a pretty good one this year for us.

Tornados Across Western Mass

Wednesday was  a crazy day in western mass. It was around 2:30 when melissa let me know it was going to rain so we ran around the backyard picking up leftovers from our memorial day cookout. The skies wer elooking really weird i remmeber thinking to myself.  We headed inside and watch some news. There was some severe storm watches and warnings then there was a tornodo watch. I had to leave around 4 to head to chicopee to be at class for 6pm. It downpoured right before i left and no tornadoes had hit so i decided i would travel to school.
