"To Laugh is to Live"

I was lucky enough to go to our County Fair 2 times while it was in town last week. One of my favorite things to do is to get the fried veggies & lemonade and go sit on the bleachers and watch Kenny Ahern's variety show. He does not speak to the audience, but uses hand motions and facial expressions and uses the kids in his show and they know just what to do. The boys were so in awe of him. On our 2nd trip to the Fair, we were sitting at a picnic table eating and out of the blue, Kenny came walking by and just came and sat down to visit with the boys. Carter, the non-shy one, just talked to him like he was his best buddy from 1st grade. In fact, at the show, Carter did run upon the stage to be a helper. We are really not sure if Kenny did motion for him to come up, but it brought a lot of laughs from the audience and that's what his show is all about. I think our world needs more of this kind of entertainment. It is just so pure and innocent. Thanks Kenny for entertaining us! See you again next year. I will be the mimi sitting on the bottom bleacher holding a huge snow cone surrounded by 3 boys and a little girl, with spoons digging in.

My blog title is a quote from Kenny.
