Continuing from where we left off.

After that merry-go-round ride, Sarah just loved it so much that she took time to reflect on her experience

Next, 1/2 of our group went home and we headed to the Kiddyland in the middle of the race track where Sarah rode a space ship, pilot her own boat, sat in a tea cup, drove a semi,
flew a fighter

and rode a train with Jordan.
all the while Catherine was there watching her sister.

Well, that pretty much does it. All that just on Friday. We were all so tired from that day and Janet got a pretty good tan too.

I will be uploading some more artsy pictures from the fair on my flickr account (some are there already) so check them out if you like. =) On Saturday, we went to the zoo (we got these free passes from Jack radio at the fair which was awesome). I will see if I will do an entry for that. Please leave a comment so I will know at least someone is reading this. =)

We had a very busy *long* weekend.

We started with the Friday at the DEL MAR FAIR!! We had a huge group, with the Wongs in town from Monterey, the Lys (- Peter), Terry, Mom, Matt, Jordan visiting from Toronto, and Gigi visiting from Hong Kong. Gigi rode with us in the Janet-mobile and we parked at the Horse Park dirt lot like we do every year.

The ride to the park was quite fun. We rode on the top deck of a topless (!) bus.

Once we got there, we headed to the farm animal exhibit

where they pretty much had a contest for every type of farm animal...

even little bunny rabbits.
We fulfilled our annual allowance of deep fried everything for lunch including the popular Australian Battered Potatoes, Calamari, Hot-Dog-On-A-Stick and ice cream for the kids.

After our tummies were full, it was time to have some . . .

And here is Sarah enjoying her favorite ride.
I am going to end this entry now cause it's past 1 am already and I am so tired.

One more picture of Catherine being such a good girl in her stroller for most of the day.

(to be continued)

Yup. You've found us! This is our attempt to keep you all posted on what's going on with us. Please drop by often and say hello. We would love to hear from you. =)

On Father's Day we spent the afternoon at Janet's aunt, Esther's, for a BBQ

Here is Sarah with a funny face.

Catherine was very good at staying in her saucer most of the time.It was good to see the boys. Sarah had fun playing with them.

I believe here, James was defending Noah's gymnastic skills

such as this

or like this

it was a lively party, more so than this picture shows

the kids had so much fun playing hide-and-seek

These were all taken with my new Sigma 30 1.4 after having to send it to Sigma to have them adjust the AF. (It was front focusing.) I am pretty happy with it now.

The adults had fun too. But I took mostly pictures of kids as they are always a lot more interesting.
