dixie classic fair favorites
on saturday we went to the dixie classic fair. (pictures to come).isaac kept calling it the “ferret”, probably because a few weeks ago, we took care of some animals at a friend’s house and isaac loved the ferret. on the way home, i asked him what his favorite part of the fair was. he thought […]
