It happened.

So, it happened. I never thought it would happen to me but it did. I thought my children cared somewhat for their vanity, but I was wrong. On a bright and sunny day while Brian and I where occupied in front yard, Kamryn and Tyler out of sheer boredom decided to use their little people "fiskar" scissors to cut their own hair in the Gazebo.

Here is a play by play:


Exhibit A= Fiskar scissors -



The chosen styles:



What they resemble now:






And if Tyler turns out like this- I'm not sure I mind.


Or perhaps, Kenny Fisher





I also made them clean up.




Lets be honest here, at first it was an issue. Shock had set in,  and then came the oh well, its not that bad, and now we are on ha ha that was funny. 

Yesterday: Brian- " Robyn! why cant I find a pair of scissors around here?"




State Fair 2013

Little Farm Hands



No idea what this thing was, looked like a photo op. we took it.

So how'd they measure up this year vs last year

Tyler = not much- couple inches



Kamryn = alot? standing at an angle in year 2012- results could be skewed.


Alex = some improvement



Best ride of  the day, hands down, the bumper cars.


Worlds largest popcorn ball, donated by Weaver Popcorn, "but not really" says Brian.Whatever that means.  FYI to all - It was all "glued" together


A state fair visit would  not be complete without a photo opportunity with the worlds largest boar.


Corn dogs, lots of corn dogs. He needed another hand.
