Uncle Connor!

Taylor's little brother flew into town last week. We had a blast! We managed to slip a custard run into our agenda nearly every day! This is what we did in between custard:

Brewer's game. We lost.

Visit to the Jelly Belly Factory.



Sprechers! 30 minute tour + all-you-can-drink soda = heaven for these Merkley boys. And Eliza, too. Eliza loves Daddy's "spicy soda."


Milwaukee Zoo!


State Fair!
Connor paid a whole dollar to see Tiny Tim, the world's smallest horse. They said his hooves were the size of a silver dollar, but they were really the size of his hand. Rip off.
The bunnies fascinated Eliza. She kept mimicking them by wiggling her nose. Very cute.
Riding the merry-go-round. Eliza preferred to ride on the bench, not the moving pig, which was rather traumatic.

Although you can't tell from this picture. This was taken before the pig began to move.
Ahhh, the cream puffs!
The chocolate covered bacon. Connor gave it a thumbs down; Taylor and Eliza a thumbs up. I declined this year.

Eliza wanted to sit on this "big seats" forever. Thank goodness she didn't know the vibrated or she would have been begging me for money.
