A Morning at the Fete

Today we attended the annual fete at a local school. Before it opened I took both boys with me to Mass. They were quite well behaved - for change.
Highlights were when J asked very loudly why was there a hole in roof over the altar. To which I replied it was a skylight and he asked very earnestly what would happen when the hail came in? The at the "Sign of Peace" A solemnly shook hands with a man in the seat behind us and then shouted at the top of his voice, "Yes, and after this we're going on the RIDES!" I reckon that he could have been heard from the back seat of the church.
They went on all the little kid rides courtesy of $10 each from Grandma, we had morning tea and they played on both playgrounds with Dad while I scouted quickly around the stalls. Then they both went into the baby animals. J was happy enough to leave after about 10 minutes and went off home with Dad while I stayed at least another 15 mins with A. He announced on the way home that he really would like a baby pig. Not in this lifetime buster!
