The Trouble With Girls

 Sedalia, MO...has a nice hotel & the Missouri State Fair...but not much else
 Hanging out in Missouri.
 Mom having no clue what is about to happen.
 Scotty McCreery MEET & GREET!!! (thanks for the hook-up Dana & Jason)

 My favorites...lemonade shake up, corn dog and boots! Yeehaw!!
 Holding her sign with pride...at someone's show in the beer tent...front row mind you!!
 In line to meet Scotty!
 The ladies...
 Selfie!!
 And the moment...
 She thinks I'm funny...
 Or scary?
 Holding her sign up!! She had the young girls behind her jealous!
 Great concert by a great kid.
 Peace Out Scotty....we are on our way to....
 American Idol Concert at the Illinois State Fair!!!
 Oh Wait....had to get a bit more Scotty in there....this was taken by their crew!
 Rain meant not being on the track but mom still scored Meet & Greet passes for having her AARP card with her! Go Mom!
This was also the gesture I made to travelers we past for the 4 hours from Seadlia to Springfield. I got bored in the car and thought I would try to make some drivers day. I also tried getting semi-truck drivers to honk....had a good percentage of honks and an equal percentage of weird looks.
 Looking at these pictures...I think she's scared to take her picture with me....wonder why?
 Didn't watch AI this season but apparently this cool cat was the winner!
Which totally deserves a fist bump!
 He liked me!
 Malaya
 This girl was fun!
 Sam! Apparently anyone under the age of 16 thinks he's a heart throb!
 Jena!
My goal for the weekend was to photo bomb someone...never though in a million years that my MOTHER would be the one to photo bomb me!
Great memories made!

Chop Suey!!

I think she has the chop sticks mastered....she has the eating part down....now if she could just sit still in a restaurant when she is finished stuffing her face. We went shopping for our vacation tonight and she was so good....and was so excited....but I think it was just for the snacks. I said, "Mallory-would you like to bring or buy anything for when we go to Florida?" Her response-"Yep! Chocolate Cake!"
Really....of all the things she could want and take with her...she wants cake! Silly kid...
 This was when I asked her to give me her biggest smile. She liked the cloth napkin...to cover her princesses up with...
 Oh this is fun mommy!
 
Oh I got this!
 Yum! Yum!

She really liked the soup and she did get a hold of some of our sushi....that was called Spicy Girl. She couldn't get the water to her mouth quick enough but she tried to get some more. Proud of our little eater!

Where Life Is Good!!!

We got to spend the weekend at Grandma & Papa Ham's house. Mallory was so excited! She talked about it all week and loved the fact that she was getting to go to another fair!! 


 Fishing at grandma's...should someone tell her she may need a pond?
 Ready to rock the Adams County Fair!
 Driving Miss Daisy.
 She loves the rides!!
 Hey there mom...don't worry it's a nice dinosaur. lol!
 Playing with corn.
.
 She found a bunny! She loved the bunny barn. Squeeling, sticking her fingers in the cages, giggling...she LOVED it!
 Hey there baby goat!
 Feeding the goats!

 Dancing it up at the concert
 Not a good picture but she is such a thrill girl. She loved the roller coaster. I rode with her the first time and then she wanted to go solo with Cassie. She squealed and raised her arms even. I think they rode the roller coaster 5 times...a couple of times in a row. She couldn't get enough.
 Silly girl...she put her glasses upside down and then stuck a wipe in it and thought she was hilarious! Mom-look at me...I'm silly. Although at times, I wish everyone could see this side of Mallory....other times I'm glad its just us...;)
This was me when I was younger...Mallory looks just like this...down to the look!!!
