I took one for the team this year and instead of going to the fair (*sniff*) I went to Seattle to can peaches all day. It's so worth it - canned peaches are the best, but I really wanted to go to the fair! Life's not fair - ha ha! Anyway, Bryan took the three boys to the rodeo at the fair with Dave and Lindsay (thanks Aunt Jodi and Uncle Ron for the tickets!). They had a BLAST! Rix got bored with the rodeo but thought being with everyone was fun. Bryce couldn't get enough of the rodeo and I am praying daily he doesn't want to be a rodeo star. And Cole cried because he wasn't redneck enough - meaning he was a pill until they took his shirt off and after that he was an angel. Weird. After the rodeo Bryan took out a second mortgage on the house and bought tickets so the boys could ride a couple rides. Surprisingly my kids are not afraid of rides and there were no Olivia moments on the roller coaster (although I do have to admit that I'm bummed - the photos of Olivia are priceless and I wouldn't mind having some of my own!). Bryan and I are going back to the fair next week with my parents to do the "adult" fair - you know, where you walk around and actually look at the exhibits. Oh, and eat lots and lots of scones. Yum! See, didn't I take one for the team??

They love to drive things. And it helps that this car has two steering wheels.

Cole missed his afternoon nap and apparently wasn't into the whole fair thing.

This is a view of Cole from under the stroller tray. Isn't he so cute??

And this is what happens when we ask Rix and Bryce to take a picture together.

I am so impressed. Byran, Dave & Lindz took the kids to the rodeo. Then the carnival and also took pictures? I'm very very impressed. Can we borrow them?
Looks like they had fun. I am not much of a carnival person so, I am more excited for the peaches. Don't tell me if you got the peaches at pikes place. They have the best peaches and I will just be jelous if you did.
Can I just say that on most of your posts, I end up laughing to myself? Anyway, sorry you didn't have any Olivia moments. They really are priceless. And I am sosososososo jealous! I love the "adult" fair! And I don't want scones... I want onion burgers and scones. Save me a can of peaches. I want one. So give me one and I will eat it in one sitting (I'm really not joking)
Jealousy is taking over right now, I forgot how much the fair is (although I'd be with Rix, rodeos are no fun!). I love Cole's sleeping picture, so cute! Eat a scone for me, or overnight it to me. Whatever.
Your kids are so funny!! Can't wait to see you in october!! uea!!!
