The Farris Wheel & Atkins

Today Blake's step-dad, John, celebrates his birthday. Mason, Max and I made a trip to The Farris Wheel to get some dark chocolates for him. The shop is like an old fashioned candy store with lots of bins and barrels full of candy. It's the neatest store...and they give free samples! Unfortunately for me, I'm on the Atkins Diet. No treats for me.
Max after his bath and the reason I'm on Atkins...much sweeter than candy from the Farris Wheel, don't you think!

Mason drooling on the glass as he makes his choice.

Why do they put candy at kids' levels? We ended up with an extra Tootsie Roll and a pack of Smarties...both of which got paid for...eventually!

  1. I LOVE the blog. I can't wait to hear some of your stories. I know they are rich! Tell marcus if he wants to come over and use his metal detector in the field behind us, he can!!!

  2. He's already gotten a few help requests. Grammy's dog ate a pair of very expensive earrings that she never "found"! She assured him that enough time has passed, and anything yucky has surely disintegrated!
