We headed out bright and early Saturday morning to the Farm Machinery Show to be there when the doors opened. I really didn't know how long all the kids would last and thought that it's be less crowded first thing. Boy was I wrong---super packed!! The kids did wonderfully, they had a lecture on my rules and expectations before we even got there so they knew what was expected from them. Honestly, I wasn't all that thrilled about taking 4 kids plus Brian (he's worse then any kid) to this, but it was fine--we all had a great time...no meltdowns or lost kids!!

And the fun begins at the Farm Show 2011
Hayley, Clayton, Leah and Hunter |
I loved all the looks that people were giving us because we had 4 kids 9,7,3, and 6 months. It's possible that they all could be ours, but THANKFULLY they are not!! Don't get me wrong, I love them all to death and wouldn't trade anything for them, but I am TOO OLD for that many babies that far apart!!

Leah was content people watching |
The kids loved getting looking at everything, we had to stop and see the new Ford trucks and see what goodies they were giving out. Everyone got a raffle ticket, and we had a winner in our group...Hayley!! Just what we needed another hat--since we are hat wearing people and all. She was super excited and it was worth it! Had to laugh when Clayton asked if we won a truck..wishful thinking bud!!

LOVE THIS PICTURE:
Ma, Hayley, Clayton, Hunter and Brian |
What would the show be if we didn't climb on a half dozen tractors and see too many things that we wanted? Its the most fun part of it all, seeing all the new "toys" and daydreaming about them!!
Needless to say the ride home was quiet, all the kids but Hunter napped, including me!!

All tuckered out |

Too much fun for Brian |
All in all it was a successful and fun trip. Can't wait to go back next year, minus two kids!!
