Fair

As usually we attended the Walla Walla Frontier Days at the beginning of September. The kids look forward to this all year long, and are constantly asking when we are going to the fair. They were so worn out by the end, and so were mom and dad. I love watching my kids at the fair. I wish we could have gone earlier and not gotten done so late. At least we got to see all the rides lit up for the night before we left.

Isn't this the cutest picture. Riley was being such a good big brother helping Abbie with all the rides and making sure she was safe. I have about four pictures like this that we took throughout the day.

Here we are at the end of the day. Lucky for the kids that they get one last ride home. Riley bought this glow sward. It was like a strobe light all the way home. My eyes were pretty sore.




Parade
The next morning we went to the Walla Walla Frontier Day Parade. Like most kids, mine love parades. Mostly for the candy, but they do love to see all of the floats, horses and other things. We ended up sitting on the wrong side of the street though. We were in the sun the whole time. Had this been a parade at Malad, it would have been no problem because it would have been over before we felt the affects of the sun. However, that was not the case. It was a pretty long parade. The kids were hiding in our shadows by the time it was over. It is a good thing we brought lots of water.
