We attended the Puyallup Fair Saturday with Grandma Julee and Grandpa Gary! You could not have asked for better weather. The Fair did not seem too crowded, either. It was an ideal day… (Thanks, Dad, for the pictures. They turnd out terrific!)
This is a picture of me and ‘A’ on the sky ride, overleooking the whole fair.
An aerial view of the fair…
This is called Mutton Busting. Kids under the age of six try to ride a sheep for as long as they can. It was pretty entertaining. 3 out of 4 kids backed out when they got on the sheep. Did my boys participate?
Oh, no…they both have a pretty solid sense of self preservation.
RIDES….
RIDES…
AND MORE RIDES…
We were able to witness an incredible event. A cow gave birth! There was quite a crowd and I could not see anything, but we put the boys on our shoulders and they tried to tell us what was going on. My Dad was able to get these pictures by holding his camera up high over his head.
You cna see the man pulling the tethered calf out by his legs…
The boys first experience with cotton candy. They both loved it! DH had quite a project cleaning ‘R’ up, though…
Grandpa Gary and Grandma Julee..
The boys wre a little timid of ‘Plasterman’, so he came off of his perch and talked to the boys. I thought that was pretty neat.
That’s one big pumpkin!!
See you next year. YEE HAW!
Looks like a great day filled with lots of memories! Loved the pictures.
Have a blessed day!

It looks like you chose the right day to go to the fair. How neat to "see" through the eyes of the camera the calf being born.
Wild sheep rides. Looks exciting!
What a pumpkin!
Looks like you had a wonderful time! That's crazy that your boys were able to see a calf born! How are you all doing? You and your family are in my prayers!
Looks like fun. Someday The Husband & I want to get up to that part of the world – me for the quilt shops, and him to see the railroad tracks that he manages from down here in TX.
