Amarillo Trip & The FAIR!

We hadn’t been to Amarillo since Christmas so our visit was long overdue. It was busy and hectic as usual, but we enjoyed seeing family. Poor Henry Boy got exhausted and has been fighting a bug with a fierce fever for three days. Poor Barry skipped his fishing trip so we could bring him home a day early. The boys got the short end of the stick this trip.

HA!

Or not….they were super fast and it scared her to death.

I promise I didn’t let her see me laughing. The nice man by Barry stopped it quickly!
