Fun at the Fair

Minnesota State Fair- 2008
Here are my little piggies
Oliver's first ride on the Giant Slide.  He loved it. He said, "more, more, more" for the next 10 minutes. 
He loves sitting on the tractors.  Notice the big tractor he's riding is an Oliver tractor.  And no that is not what he is named after.  That was the first question my grandpa asked me when he was born. 
It was so hard for him to wait his turn to ride this tractor, but he did it!
*this post could have been so much better if the picture layout thingy wasn't so silly.  I can't put the pictures or text where I want them.   AARRRRGGG I am so frustrated.   Is it just me?  I feel like I am competent on the computer but this program is not making any sense.  What my post looks like in the edit or preview mode is not what shows up once I publish it. No I did not mean for it to look like a jumbled mess. Lets play "guess what order the pictures are supposed to be in and what caption goes where". This sucks.  My post quickly turned from a quick blog about a fun day and turn into me swearing and wondering if I will ever do this again. And Tim doesn't blog so he is of no help.  If anyone knows what I am doing wrong please let me know.

FUN! CiBaby left the slide very reluctantly as well (or should I say kicking and screaming?!?).

I kwym about the posts. It's screwy sometimes. One thing I do is add all the pics first and write around them, it seems to help me at least.

i have the same problem with the pictures. it gets frustrating, but i figure so long as people see the pictures they can figure it out along the way while reading the blog. :) it sounds like you guys had a good time at the fair though, which is what counts. :)

I've started plotting my pictures before I start adding them and usually just write things between them. Otherwise I go stark raving mad!

Corbin saw the picture of O and nearly stabbed my computer in his excitement!

I do what Angie does. I write, and then when I want to insert a picture I download it, then I have to cut and paste because it always comes out on the top. Then I keep writing until the next picture insert!

It usually gets screwy when you try to do small or medium pictures. What I do is post it and then open a separate window. Then I can look at it and fix it at the same time. I add spaces (returns) between the separate pics/captions, then republish and see if it fixes it until I figure it out.

BTW the fair looked fun!
