Is it Fair?

Well, August in Whatcom County means it is time for the Fair.  Although it wasn't a priority in our schedules, we did manage to make it to the final day of the Fair.  The Fair really was just a bonus to spending time with David, Lili, Maggie, Benjamin, Samantha, and Amanda.

Sydney got to spend the day with her friend Maggie, so she was extra excited.  She got to ride the smaller 'carnival' roller coaster with Maggie.  I figured she was a coaster pro by now, but she screamed the entire time.  I kept saying to other people who were looking on in horror, "geez, whose kid is that?!"  She got another chance to redeem herself on the spinning dinosaur ride, but she clearly did not like the velocity for which we were spinning, and for which she was plastered to the back of the vehicle.

Corwin enjoyed his time at the fair staring at livestock.  He looked amazed...I'm not sure if it was due to the size of the animals, or the fact that the cows were not smaller...inside buns...and covered with ketchup.  When he was rested up, he made short work of funnel cake, cotton candy, and lemonade before hitting the zipper and the grav-a-tron in the adult carnival area...at least he only wishes.  I'm sure in time he'll get to explore his thrill issues.

We are looking forward to Nana's arrival next week and I'm sure we'll have more fun updates to share.  In the meantime, have a great weekend!!!
