This past weekend Brynn and I headed home to take in the Wells County Fair in Fessenden. In the past it seems we've always had something going on the same weekend as the fair back home, except the past couple of years now we have been able to make it.
We stayed at my parents' on Friday night and Brynn and I tooled around in Grandpa's new tractor. It was pretty fun.

We stood on Main Street and watched the parade with Auntie Tessa and the cousins on Saturday morning. It was a nice-sized parade with quite a few alumni floats, so that was fun to see all the classes together again.

Since many of the classes were having their reunions during the fair, the school was open for tours. I asked Brynn if she wanted to see where I had gone to school (and Papa Kim, Aunties Shelly and Cindy and Great-Grandma Darlene, too!). She said she wanted to, so all of us got a personal tour from Mrs. Bollingberg. (She was not one of the teachers when I attended school there, but was Tessa's). Brynn was most interested in the fact that Reagan had attended one year of preschool there as well. :-)

At the fairgrounds the girls were learning all about this one-room school house from these two ladies. I think the older ladies and the young girls all got a kick out of telling the stories and hearing them. It was really cute.

I just love their faces in these two photos! They were the only two on the ride.
