Constitution Fair 2011














We LOVE the Constitution Fair! Mel and I went in the fall of 2011 with some good friends (Quinns, Dennisons, and the Linfords) to Gilbert's Constitution Fair. It was fun to see the kids learn and have fun at the same time. A lot of work goes into this fair and the we spent a couple hours checking out all the booths and playing games too. I loved all the characters walking around. I only got one picture of them though, don't know what I was thinking, but it was fun to see the kids recognize George and Martha Washington. Each character had a collectible card they passed out that had information about them on it. There was also a new display, a piece of a beam from one of the World Trade Centers in New York that was hit September 11, 2001. It is here so we don't forget and I was glad for a chance to talk to Melody about what had happened. Once it was dark, there was entertainment and fireworks and the kids loved hearing David Archuleta preform (ok and the adults too :) We are going to make this an annual event!
