Since we are farm members, we've now seen the faire in every season. It was a crisp fall day and the fires we avoid standing near in the summer were comforting. J frequently craves the pork sausage (which we think they make on the farm - so fresh!) on the crusty bread with spicy mustard. Everything is cooked over the open fire and served straight into your hand. The boys know the routine now and they can pick some chicken.
We made our rounds to see the farm before the faire officially opened. Keaton quickly found a writing stick just like he did last time, although this time he could write quite a few more letters. We peeked inside the newly built root cellar right inside the side of the hill, where they are storing the actual harvest like squash, etc. The chickens and rooster were trying to find a warm place to roost along with the squaking silly gooses.
When the faire opened we caught the first fencing show from the front row. We all had a chance to hold a sword and pretend to fence. Keaton especially was beyond excited they let him hold the sword that was taller than him! Rock candies, seesaws, and bat paintings rounded out the fun ;)
