Could be one of my favorite pictures ever. . . .

A carnival

I am going to have seasoned riders in a few years  Paige is spoiled by going to the Mall of America every year and did not think the small rides we had were nearly cool enough.  Cooper thought they were good; and especially loved the giraffe on the carousel.   Cotton candy is a great think no matter where you get it!

Bear Country

We spent this last weekend in Spearfish/Rapid City and snuck in a quick trip to Bear County.  Last time we were there I was pregnant with Cooper about this same time of year ironically.  They have improved quite a few areas; and it was a nice sunny day but cool; so the animals were quite active.  We are a few weeks early to see lots of baby bears but there were 3 out and about.  The kids loved seeing the animals and it was a great place to stretch our legs and run after shopping and driving.
