Maggie giving the "thumbs-up" while riding the motorcycle ride. Ben Gunderson (Uncle Ben), a family friend, came with us to the fair. Awww...what a cute family...typical Maggie face! Tonight, we went to the Dickinson County Fair in Norway, MI. While the fair is pretty "small town" in nature, this year they had definitely improved in the food. We had hot wings, fried sweet potatoes/onions/peppers, grilled teriyaki chicken kabobs, egg rolls, and last but not least, deep fried oreos!!! To us, the best part of going to a fair is the food!! Of course, Maggie loved the rides, and expensive games - we came home with yet another cheap toy that I will probably get rid of in a few weeks. We also went to a logging competition...pretty good for a little fair like this was. There was also a CEF booth where they were painting kids' faces and showing them the Wordless Book. I think the lady that painted Maggie's face was about to skip the Gospel story, since she knew we were from Northland, but I asked her to tell Maggie. Everytime Maggie hears God's Word, I know it is sinking deeper and deeper into her mind...there is something so exciting about hearing someone else share the salvation plan with your child, and yet so sobering, as it reminds me that right now she is not serving the King of Kings but the prince of this world. May we be earnest in praying for the salvation of our children's souls. |
Looks like so much fun! I love the thumbs up...that's great! I wish we were enjoying some 60-70 degree weather down here! :-)
