Wilson County Fair 2016

When we found out that the kindergarteners were to be recognized at church during the same week as the Wilson County Fair, I knew it was the perfect "persuasion tactic" to get Charley to participate.  She has never been a fan of walking down front at church and typically refuses to do it, but we told her we would go to the fair with the Artley's as soon as church was over if she would do it with a smile on her face!  Of course a day with Sam, riding rides and eating junk food was the perfect bribe.  She didn't hesitate to accept her sweet Bible and sit up front while all of the children were prayed over.


The weather leading up to the fair was less than ideal.  I'm so thankful the sun came out and we had a great time, but it poured leading up to the fair making the ground and parking awful!  I threw my sandals away when we got home...I giggled every time I saw Craig stepping in the mud...we literally picked the stroller up over cars since it didn't fit between the cars and the mud was so nasty.  On a super positive note, the fried pickles and ice cream were delish!
