Grandpa Comes to town and State Fair

After arriving home we found everything great! Grandma had taken very good care of the kids and had also purchased them a brand new trampoline which was much needed seeing that our old one had a huge hole in it and was rusting away! The next day Grandpa Cottle came into town to enjoy some R&R from his very stressful job. He has been going down to Columbia to manage the work on the oil refiners and has also had a few very big business things go sour so he needed a break. It was also a special opportunity to have him here for His birthday! Grandma Debbie and Him decided to go to the temple then visit his mom Grandma Carol. When the kids got out of school we were going to meet them there and then go to the State Fair! It was so wonderful visiting with Grandma and the kids got to enjoy her sweet beautiful spirit! Then off to the Fair. This was the first time we had been to the state fair and was a fun experience for us all! We enjoyed some good BBQ cooking then let the kids fish in a pond that the Fish and Game were hosting, enjoyed the animals and a magic show put on by a pirate. Then, the finale was riding the carnival rides! SO MUCH FUN! We loved spending time with the Cottles :)
