Central Washington State Fair (Fall 2014)

I'm working hard to get a few more 2014 events on the books.
It's time to live in the present, but there's a couple more things I just couldn't leave out.

I took Ivan and Jenelle to the fair again last year.
I got the feeling that the time is near - possibly upon us - when they are no longer willing to go with just me.
We had fun, but I noticed that Ivan was looking for people he knew.
Not sure if he wanted to say hi or if he was going to hide because he was with his mom.
Either way - its been fun while it lasted!
These two know how to have a good time together!

Jenelle was up for most rides this year.
She rode this stomach turning spinning thing with Ivan.

But she declined this one...

Ivan's giving the thumbs up...upside down (with eyes closed!)

 She chose this nice smooth ride instead!

Ivan took some convincing to get on the ferris wheel.

Not because he was scared of it - but because it wasn't quite scary enough.

This was a rough year for fair-goers!
I almost got puked on by a kid and I saw another boy get off a ride and run straight for the trash can.
In fact, even Jenelle took part in this activity!

After all was said and done, she was ready to keep riding!

After all that hard work, it was time for refreshment!
If you say you don't like "fair food", I say you're lying!

After lunch we finished up with the candy exhibit, animals and pig races!
Another great day!
