apple days

the apple days festival is held at ft. riley every fall and last year we missed it, so this year we decided to see what all the fuss was about. there are activities for kids, a small rodeo, and lots of free fun! we first toured all the big time tanks and such... the kids were able to climb in and have a good time taking some pictures... yeah, not so much. i think raegan's exact words were, 'this is not fun! i don't want to take pictures!'





after we exhausted them with pictures, we headed over to the home depot tent. i guess at the beginning of every month home depot has a day where kids can come in and do little building/craft projects, and they had a booth set up at the festival. grace made a butterfly house and raegan made a school bus pencil holder. i think this was their favorite part... or maybe the bounce house.



all in all... a success! grace left saying, 'that was so much fun! it is a good day!' music to my ears.
