Fair

So I am still way behind on my summer blogging. The next few posts will be in random order as I get to them or maybe one big post hmmm.....

A couple of weeks ago we went to the state fair. I love the fair. I loved going every year with my friends, then taking Ky, and now the girls. I think I passed on that gene to Ash. We let the girls skip a day of school and got there really early. Ky wasn't sure about this at first, but there wasn't hardly anyone there and we got to spend as much time looking at everything as we wanted. We also had our pick from tables and benches at lunch. The best part...no lines for the rides! The girls loved it and now Kami asks everyday "are we going to the fair today".
One of my favorite things to do is let the girls get their faces painted, it is so fun and they love it. They picked their own design and had them done in their favorite colors.
I didn't realize this pic was out of focus.
The girls got to pick 3 rides each. Kaite wanted to pick all grownup rides, typical Kaite! She was very disappointed that she was too short to ride most of them, especially the zipper! We had to really talk Ash into riding the swings. She ended up liking them.


Kaite loved every minute of it! Check her out with her arms out and grinning ear to ear. Then her and Ky rode this ride, she was still loving it.
Ash didn't want to ride this coaster either but loved it afterwards. She was good enough to ride all of the rides with Kami though. Lyvi chilled in her stroller. The day was a little overcast and at times windy. It is a good thing I have the giant diaper bag with everything in it! Lyvi ended up wearing almost everything I had! She didn't match but she stayed warm. She was so good the whole day.We watched the shark show. All the kids sat up front for this and loved it. It was a very cute show and seeing all the sharks was interesting. When we first got there Kaite was very worried about where the sharks were kept.
The girls all loved the horses and petting the other animals. We all agreed that the pigs stunk the most!
After a long day this is what the ride home was like!
One of the funniest things happened before we even went. I told the girls all about the food and said what we needed to eat when we were there. Well apparently I stressed Kami out because the day before she said she didn't want to go because she "didn't want to eat a tiger's ear"! I guess I should have explained that better! She loved the tiger ear btw.

fyi I am not liking this new blogging format they have now!
