The Fair

We didn't make it to the fair last year so I promised Jake we would go this year. Luckily we picked a day that the rain held off in the evening and we had a lot of fun! It was an interesting this year because Jake was too tall for some of the kiddie rides, but to short for lots of the adult rides. We did get to go on 2 big rides together and had a blast. One went upside down (a first for Jake) and the other is that ride that looks like bob sleds that plays really loud music and you go really fast forward and then backwards in a circle. I think every fair has one! Daddy missed out on the fun so he could enjoy one of his last weeks playing basketball.

This one is so attractive of me...We have a tradition that we always take the pictures were you hold the camera out. Some come out better than others...


This was a fun one that Jake went on twice. He is on the right side of the picture.


Those of you who know me well can probably guess what I did right after Jake got off this ride. I used hand sanitizer on his chin (and hands)! Can you imagine the amount to germs on that thing?

We meet up with our friends the Vanderhoof's. Here is Jake with Kaili (she was in Jake's 1st grade class and this year they are back together) and Kaci on one of the rides.


The first ride Jake went on! (these pictures aren't in order)


This is the ride Jake and I went on that went upside down. It was awesome!
