I am sharing a little bit of INDIANA with you all with the pictures this week!
INDIANA STATE FAIR
Dd and Dh at the Walt Disney Exhibit---very fun exhibit!
Our favorite part of the fair: The Pioneer Village
Heather----is this who you did your Easter Egg's with this year???
We have to have some cow's and chicken's in our picture's ---we are in Indiana after all!
Our other favorite part of the fair is the HONEY place! We get honey ice cream, and honey sticks. This year we bought beeswax scented with lavender to put on our dry skin---heavenly!
I personally LOVE the 4H poster displays! I always spend forever reading as many as I can! My poor family had to wait for me! I plan on doing some pressed flowers like this poster'er did.
We had 2 Black Swallowtail Butterflies hatch this week---which was great! These are the pictures from the first part of the week. We did go to the Indiana State Fair; but those pictures aren't ready yet. I'll download those in a little bit--check back later!
I released this butterfly---and it flew away; and then flew back into our yard! I've never-ever had that happen!!! And then SHE flew over to this Black-Eyed Susan flower and I took her picture! It was really neat to see her return!
This is the chrysalis she hatched from. We had a fennel next to our pea plants in the spring. The momma butterfly laid her eggs on the fennel, and I watched the caterpillars for weeks, and then we brought in the chrysalis that was on the pea stalk and put it in our aquarium. It only took about 2-3 weeks until she hatched.
Dd and Dh were invited to join GG and her dad right on the 2nd row to watch the Indianapolis Indians baseball team play! How cool is that! They had a great time out all together! It was a Dad's and Daughter's night out!
A few weeks ago Dd and Dh went to a see the woman's basketball team here in Indiana--the FEVER play---here are a few pictures from that game too:
..
That is a different lady than my friend who teaches the eggs but I'm sure there are several in the area. I saw one entered in the 4h building. Loved your fair pictures -- you saw some different things than we did. WE are going back tomorrow night. Maybe we will see more.....
