First State Fair

Grandma and Grandpa DeDe and Uncle Brett came to Des Moines last weekend to visit Jolie. Uncle Michael decided the first weekend back at college might have a party that was too important to miss--hehe.

We headed over to the Iowa State Fair and I'm not sure if you're aware, but it's a pretty big deal. And maybe I'm a little crazy but large crowds of people, hot and humid weather and food on a stick doesn't usually sound like a super good time to me, but I figured I'd better not be a party pooper and I couldn't think of any good baby excuses, so we all went.

Of course of all people, I got lost from everyone for about 5 minutes when I thought I needed a drink. And I forgot a pony tail holder so my hair was all sweaty and then we were walking down this road and there was a bunch of people walking their giant cattle and goats and then came the giant horses pulling their carts and we were right in the middle--this is my nightmare!!! Don't I sound fun? But you know who did great? Jolie!! She just sat in her stroller and looked around and everything and everyone. I don't think she cried or fussed once! She was just so amazed by everything and took it all in.

Here's Jolie rolling her eyes at how ridiculous I was being


Jolie just held her foot up and cruised in her stroller. This was her face pretty much the whole time.


We had a great time with Uncle Brett and Grandma and Grandpa DeDe and can't wait to see them again!
