The fair


ok, so what i did today was go to the fair. It was super fun!!!! ( oh, and by the way, yesterday was my half birthday and i am officially 12 1/2!!!!! yay, just had to share that more later on)

I just go for the food and freebees. I got free tickets from the library even, so most of it was free. I ate
  1. french fries- they had just taken them out of the fryer!!!!
  2. cotton candy-i got a cone but it was huge and my dad hates cotton candy sort of, so I threw some of it away. oh well, at least it was cheap!
  3. pizza-the most awesome stuff! very satisfying
  4. lemonade-it was pretty good, but not all the it's supposed to be.
  5. mini donuts-they're always good, and we got them fresh today~
  6. all-you-can-drink milk-they were out of chocolate so i was very upset but i drank white. it went well with the mini donuts...that's alwasys our departing snack.

So, like most of the time we were trying to track down freebees, so I'll tell you what we got

proud of me? i am. And that's just me!!! My dad got almost all that stuff too! in all i got 71 items. totally free except for two of the buttons. they were Mark Kennedy and Tim Pawlenty buttons that we had to pay for. the other thing we did that costed money was to take a skyride. You know those gondolas that you see? Well, we did something like that except for ours was like a ski lift. I had never done htat before so it was fun! i had a blast...

ok, i'm kind of doing this backwards because now I'm going back to yesterday... It was my half birthday as i already mentioned. We went to church and my dad had an elders meeting htat he had to be at because he's an elder. (not elderly, just an elder) so we waited......and waited.............and waited..........................and waited..........................................and waited............................and wa-well, you get the picture. We were going to go out to lucnh to celebrate my half birthday ( don't worry, we dont do presents or anything, just like fast food like Qdoba which was where we were going to go), but time was cut short because I had to baby-sit at1:00. It was 12:3-something then... So, when my dad got out of his meeting we instead of eating out barely had time to eat something at homw so we got wendy's onthe way. i baby-sat, an dit was really fun...one of the kids told me that he lived in a cow!!! like, we asked him if he lived in a house, or somehting like it and he said, "nope, cow." so that was that. The kid is two and a half just so you know... well, after that we ate at Qdoba. I had a cheese quesodilla with guacamole. It was muy bien. Then, afterwards i was having stomach pains os i think something dissagreed with me. That night we had a Gilmore Girls marathon and watched 4 episodes ina row because we have to get through two seasons before the new one starts!!!!!!! yikes!

anyhow. i've bored you long enough.

love,

full and tired
