Fair Fun!

Olivia has been dying to go to the fair this year. She actually has been dying to go for the past couple of years, we just have not made it. We have been trying to find an evening that we were all free for the past few weeks. Well, there was not an evening that we ALL had free...so we got creative. We had to, the fair closes in a few days.

What a good looking group! This is the last time we saw this bib. I wonder what else we lost? The whole evening Jake was dropping things out of the stroller.

We finally started using the double stroller. Zach all of the sudden loves it!

Olivia is so brave. She stood in line and got on all of these rides all by herself. She wanted to do some of the tween rides. Zane and I decided we only were going to ride the ferris wheel and Zach was too short (and scared) for some of the things she wanted to try. Too bad you worked Sherrie. Zane and Olivia said several times last night "We should have brought Maddie with us."

Zach wasn't too sure about the bumper cars. He was hanging on for dear life.
The carousel...always a favorite. Although Zach did look a little nervous on this too. He is used to Mom or Dad standing next to him. He started smiling at the end!
Hanging on for dear life again...but smiling while doing it!

You look good in a rocket, darling!

Olivia is being a good sport about the kiddie rides Zach wanted to go on.

Are you smiling because you have a secret? Is it that you just tore off your brand new bib and dropped it in the crowd?
Zachary is trying to decide if he would brave the fun house. It actually turned out to be a favorite!
We ate various foods on a stick for dinner, but all night we all wanted a funnel cake. We got a couple to share. Rest assured, the man told us they were calorie and fat free..."great I'll take two!" Zachary wanted nothing to do with the funnel cake, he wanted a diet coke for dessert. I wish that is all I wanted!

The finale for Olivia...the Cliff Hanger!

With life being so hectic lately, it was nice to spend a whole evening with you guys. Being with you four is my favorite pastime!

Wow! I never knew Olivia was such a dare devil! I haven't been to the fair in years...I could go for a funnel cake just about now! Forget the diet coke!
