Fairs and Feasts

It's that time of year again...the county 4-H fair! Aaron's obsession with construction vehicles is STILL in full force so he was super excited to see the tractors and "dig-digs." Yes, that is a mesh-backed camo hat...what? we wanted to fit in;)
Josh's sister Jennifer is visiting from New York so she and his mom planned an Orahood women lunch! It was super sweet and really neat to see a bunch of women who are all linked by a common bond! Who doesn't love an excuse to doll up their little girl?;)
The youngest generation of Orahood girls: Olivia, Emily, Grace, and Lena:
The whole clan ranging in age from 6 mos to 90 years!
Emily has gotten better at eating cereal since her first attempt. We finally got the high chair put back together (Aaron has been using a big boy chair for quite some time, on his own insistence). I got to eat dinner with two hands last night! Whoo hoo! She loved it and Josh and I both had a moment of heightened emotion seeing our baby sitting there...where in the world does the time go?! Aaron had a tough time with Emily being in his former seat...he got really whiney and kept saying "mine." He eventually got over it and it wasn't even an issue during (a messy) breakfast this morning.
