Ken took off early from work this week so we could take the family to the fair.
Milking Mabel in her stable has always been a favorite activity for our children. Though Kennedy and Jackson seem to have moved beyond this yearly visit to her stall, Mikey and Harrison were very excited for the experience.
Ken and I took turns carrying McKinley in our respective pouches.
Though it was a very warm day, that didn't stop Jack from donning the junior fire fighter coat.
The three oldest children were tall enough to go on the farris wheel. Dad was happy to accompany them. Thankfully they were all able to fit on the same seat.Milking Mabel in her stable has always been a favorite activity for our children.

This was Harrison's first midway ride, unless we count our traditional Christmas/birthday carousel rides. He loved it.
Jack was thrilled to be tall enough ride the roller coaster by himself!

Another fair tradition...scones!
The children are still talking about the cool 3-D movie we watched on the human brain. But they never told us what it smells like. Any guesses?
We finished our fair experience with a tour through World Vision's African exhibit. The children loved the hands-on activities. Dad enjoyed the drums.
I think this was my favorite year of "Doing the Puyallyp" yet.

How FUN! What an adventure for the kiddos!
FYI... I have never had a fair scone... I didnt even know about them until this year. Guess I'll have to check them out next year!
I can't believe you've never had one! We will have to have you over sometime and make some Fisher scones.
Well, I've had a scone... just not from the fair. =0) I would LOVE to come over and make scones with you!
