Fair Time!

I was scheduled to work the weekend of the fair and also picked up the first half of the shift today.  The boys went to Grandma and Papa's while I was working.  I picked them up when I was done and we headed over to the fair.  Grandma came with us too, Papa was already there and met up with us later.  We ran into our good friends The Corlett's and spent most of our time there with them.  Our first stop was the rabbits and chickens.



We then of course had to play on the tractors and other machinery.

Wes and Jackson

No trip to the fair is complete without ice cream from the Dairy Bar.  Mom and I got chocolate shakes and shared with the boys.  We also walked thru the commercial exhibit hall and picked up the free pencils, paper, candy, etc.  Jackson got a balloon turtle from the Alpine booth.  We checked out the flowers and other open class exhibits.  Then we played in the park for a while.
Wes and Jackson decided to bury Tristan in the sandbox.  He thought it was hilarious!  He had sand all over him, later at bath time I discovered even more.

The rides were starting soon and Jackson really wanted to ride them.  It was getting close to supper time and Tristan was getting pretty tired so we agreed on one ride.  They chose the train ride (big surprise).





After the ride and one other game we decided it was time to go home.  We got some cotton candy on the way out, what's a fair without cotton candy!  Tristan LOVED it!  All in all the boys had a great time at the fair.  Hopefully next year we can go more and have even more fun!
