Friday, August 16

It’s FRIDAY!

It’s Friday everyone! And not only is it a Friday, but it’s THE Friday of FAIR WEEK! Which means only a few more days before the end!!! I have felt so blessed this week by all of your prayers for me and the kids, for Matt, for our business.

Everything has gone relatively smoothly. Matt’s doing ok, he’s still healthy, even if he is bone-weary exhausted. Me and the kids have been healthy. The weather has been relatively agreeable, except for here and there. A bit chilly for August {40s at night and highs of 60/low 70s during the day…c-a-r-a-z-y!}

We’ve been over to the fair every day, sometimes twice a day. It really isn’t too bad for us, because we can walk, plus we don’t pay for food, unless we want something special. It’s a pretty nice perk to own a concession stand and have grandma and grandpa own another.

Of course I have been very naught this week: Shrimp dinner and fries, chili cheese dogs, pretzels, sausage gravy…yea, not good. Hopefully pushing the 200lbs of stroller and kids back and forth, sometimes twice a day is doing something.

If you follow me on Instagram and Twitter…you can search the hashtag #FairWeekintheWhiteHouse for pictures of some of the fun we’ve been having.

Of course, being that it’s fair week, means we’ve seen next to nothing of Matt. I miss him, the kids miss him. More than once I’ve had one or another of the little ones crying when we’ve said bye to him at the fair or at bedtime that they miss him. That’s hard. I had what seems to be becoming my Thursday morning of Fair Week cry {much better after that}. PicMonkey Collage 3

But….it’s Friday. We’re almost through this! Tomorrow….we cook for Montgomery Gentry, Aaron Kelly, and Lindsey Erin!
