We went to Savage Fest this year (see our visit on
a previous year) and only stayed a little while. The kids are too big for the bouncy castle and too young for all the arts and crafts booths. We did a little of the feeding animals area and saw some jump rope routines.

That night, we went to
Pepper Jacks for dessert and I got the butter pecan milkshake. There was a little too much crust for my taste, otherwise delightful!

We went to the neighboring county library for a program on chemistry, electricity, and batteries. It was a lot of fun, though the kids complained about learning outside of school, especially during the summertime. We parents liked it a lot.

While running errands, I spotted a suspicious pair of stickers on a car. I hope they are not directly related!

With nice weather, we went on a walk around Lake Kittamaqundi in Columbia.

My youngest made a new milestone--going around the roller rink without holding on to anything! He has become a much better skater, though the effort took a lot.
