Do the Puyallup .. Well I can say we did it and I'm DONE!!

We try to do the Puyallup Fair (The Washington State Fair) every year.  We did it this year, last night.  My idea was to go in and get out!  I'm not a BIG fan of crowd's.  Let's just say it wasn't a go in and out kind of day ... lol.  Of course we had to do it during the week and only last night worked (poor Rick has been working 2 jobs most days and Thursday was the day of ONLY one job).  But of course I started Caden in Soccer classes at the Y so we had to do that first then we came home tried to wake Rick up (did I mention he's been working 2 jobs everyday for about 2 wks).  Then we hit fair traffic!  7pm we get to the fair, thank GOD Rick's cousin's gave the boys a bday gift of a day at the fair we all got in FREE, 7 Rides and $7 in fair food!  PLUS since Rick has been working security at fair for the concerts he had a FREE parking pass.  Oh yes we got out of there for under $10, usually it is a $200+ event!

I took Caden and Rick took Cole so sorry mostly pics of just Caden.  I was able to get a low carb dinner even at the fair! God love these people.  WE did rides, saw the animals and then went home.  

Poser time!

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

I'm going to be super busy I am going on a trip in 2 WEEKS!

More to come on that!!!

We’re Hitting the Fair tonight

We have a county fair here that we do each year.  I remember being young and going several times.  Parents would drop us off and my hard earned babysitting money would buy rides, foods and my friends entrance also.  I remember every school year I would get a new pair of WHITE Keds and I would always wear them there, let’s just say the dirt and white would leave my shoes needing to be bleached each time.  Yeah no clue where I thought it was ok to wear them each time.  I use to love going and riding the rides.  I had a cute boy my senior year operating the tornado.  I rode that ride so many times, and guess what one time I heard a noise above when we were stopped.  Let’s just say the guy above me had so much to drink that it came down and thankfully I was skinner then and crunched into my friend most landed on my seat but some on my shirt.  Cute guy let me wear his shirt while I walked around in heaven .

When I was older I remember one time getting El Nino and being so embarrassed since this was pre weight loss and the overhead seatbelt not wanting to close thank god it did.  But needless to say this mommy body that is no longer in shape will be getting on rides.  We’re going with my parents so it will be time in the kiddy zone and let them run.  We’ll pay $15 for parking $10 to get in and who the heck knows how much more I will spend.  Not really for me but for the boys, so here we go.

We’ll go visit our animal friends:

Cole will do some Mutton Buston (Riding a Sheep)

We’ll watch the amazing pumpkin carver.

And we’ll watch the crazy long line for the Roller Coaster.

We will hit the kids area SillyVille

We will of course have fair food

Which always will include a Krusty Pup

And you MUST have a Fair Scone

(or take a Dozen home .. that won’t make it home)

And you must end your night with a swing to see the colors and lights!

So there you have it fun times coming to me tonight … hehe promise no white keds this time.  So any of you do the fair by you?
