A Few From Spokane Fair 2010

This was the 22nd consecutive year Michael and I have gone to the fair together, but I don't think anyone enjoys it as much as Ariana! She squealed "This is fun!" and "I love this!" all day.

Here is why Mom or Dad get to go on almost all the rides along with Ari. I remember the good ol' days when kids had to be 36" to ride the kiddie rides. Now, it's 42. Ari (not standing real straight for this picture) is just brushing 40".



Hey! 40 is NOT too old for the kiddie rides!



Conor is a good helper. :)






Ari even has to have an adult with her for the obstacle course things. Yay!
Gabrian was looking real serious on the super-slide,
but decided it was fun by the end. He later cited it as his favorite thing at the fair besides the apples with a stick and caramel.
They went on this ride 3 times. It was apparently fun.



Conor and Cameron ready for Hamster Battle.

The inevitable end of the fair for Miss Ariana.

Cameron Turns Nine!

Here is a happy Birthday Boy turning 9!
We went to Silverwood Theme Park. Andrew, Mandy, and Nana came with us, and we were joined by Grandma, Grandpa, Uncle Jeff, Aunt Bre, and cousins Brandon, Cassidy, and baby Ethan.
Yep, I'm telling the truth; Andew actually came with us.
Making a train down the slide to convince Gabrian and Ariana it is fun.
Ari still looks very unsure,
but Gabrian is loving it.
My kids are in there somewhere.
