Fun at the Fair!

The fair is in town!! The Tennessee Valley Fair is going on this week, so we thought we'd go and check it out. Greg and I have lived here in Knoxville for 8 years now and have never been to the fair! But now we have a good reason to go. And I think Luke really enjoyed himself!



Luke loved the petting zoo.... so many different animals to look at and touch!




Maybe he wasn't quite so fond of the goat...




But the ducks were his favorite.... he starts 'quacking' when he sees ducks! (so cute)!




Unfortunately, Luke was still too small to ride any of the rides, so all he could do was watch. Maybe next year...


But that's okay - there were still plenty of other things to do...


We saw the Sea Lion show...




My boys being silly...




I have no idea what I'm doing in this picture, but it's cute of Luke anyway...


It wouldn't be the Tennessee Valley Fair without a bunch of tractors...


We stopped under a tent to eat our lunch... I packed him a PB&J (his favorite).


All in all, it was a good day. The weather was perfect - it was overcast, so the sun wasn't beating down. It was still pretty hot, though. Luke was a trooper. I think it totally wore him out - we had no more pulled out of the parking lot before he was asleep in his car seat!!

It's Football Time in Tennessee

Yipee!! It's that fun time of year - the weather starts cooling off, the trees turn colors, and the Volunteers play some football!!! Here's Luke all decked out in his orange and white!
Go VOLS!!







This time a year ago.... Luke was only about 2-1/2 months old. My, how time flies!!
