Dan Patch Days

We took the family plus Mimi (Grandma Jean) to the exciting Savage city festival: Dan Patch Days. Emily and I took part in the 5k race in the morning (31:30 for Emily, and I ran a 20:47). Then we went home, got the kids down for a nap, and afterwords we took them to the Inflatables park, petting zoo, and the taste of Savage.

My expectations here quite low for the Dan Patch Days, but it wasn't bad. Usually the ticket based food scam irritates me, but everything was quite reasonably priced and they didn't have ticket purchase minimums.

Yeah, bouncing is fun!


This is so much fun!


Oh! I pirate ship!


Weeee, down the slide, let's do it again cousin Sophie.

Down the slide. Being a pirate is fun. Maybe we should move to Somalia.


Laura got to ride a pony (with a little help from dad and his pony pee soaked sandals.


Now for a petting zoo. Here chicken chicken chicken.


Hello Mr. Goat.


What a friendly and docile calf. Do you drink the Valium straight from the bottle?


For being such a good girl, Laura got a sucker when we got home.

Here you daddy, you were a good sport.


Last week she played in the pool, and the wet hair gives her very cute curls, so I had to take a picture.
