It's Fair time.....

Ahhhh - the Western Idaho Fair!
I have always loved going to the Fair! It's a great time to ride on rides that you hope and pray don't fall apart while you are on them, eat a bunch of food you shouldn't and of course - watch other people! Boy, the fair really brings out some interesting people! I can't even tell you how many people I saw with NO teeth! People are wearing the strangest things these days - where do you even buy scarf skirts?? (skirts made out of scarfs)

Anyway, this year my mom came with us and we had a blast! She hasn't been to the fair in maybe 15 years so she was really wanting to check it out with us and watch the kids (Mike, Andi, Caitlin and Mikayla) ride on all the rides!

For the first time in years we actually went to some of the shows.
Pretty cheesy but we still enjoyed them.
Mikayla has a small fear of the big rides (shocking I know to those who know her) and Caitlin can't enough of the big rides! This is Caitlin being a good sport and going on "little" rides with her sister. What a good big sister she is!
What a smile!
Mom couldn't resist she wanted to go on a ride too!



That's mom in the green!

Pure joy!
This ride actually got Caitlin pretty nervous - the Pirate Ship ride
I'm a sucker for the swings! Mike and I were a little nervous when we saw the rusty chains that were holding us up. YIKES!
The big roller coaster!
The girls at the Alligator Show
It was slow walking out to the car and both were finishing up their root beer floats!
