It's Fair time again!

*sorry about the blurry pictures.

It's hard to photography moving kids, animals and rides,

all at the same time.*

I cannot believe that it's already Fair time again!

Although it is starting to feel like fall around here.

Rolli, Vivian and I joined our friends at the Chelan County Fair on Thursday.

(FYI:  Thursday is the best day to go, still clean and small crowds.)

All of the kids wanted to see the animals very first thing.

Except the pigs, they didn't really care for the pigs.

So we hurried through the pig barn and over to the goats, sheep and poultry.

Rolli, Otto, Felix and Vivian.

"Oh' the goats are so cute."

Vivian and Rollin loved the soft rabbits.

This doe rabbit had 3 babies!

A white turkey!

All the kids where excited about this big guy.

There where lots of different breeds of chicken this year too.

One little hen even laid a small egg in her cage. 

This nice girl was showing a mother hen and her baby chick.

She let our gang pet the baby :)

Vivian, Rolli and Felix.

All of the animals felt so different.

Lots of textures, smells, sights and sounds!

Putting all your senses to work like that can sure make for a hungry tummy:)

Fortunately I brought snacks...

who am I kidding...

Nobody wants my snacks when there is fair food around.

Rolli and Viv each got to pick out one treat. 

Rolli with his white chocolate and sprinkles dipped strawberry kabob.

Clearly he is satisfied with his treat pick.

Vivian with her chocolate dipped strawberry and banana kabob.

Obviously Vivian doesn't mess around when it comes to eating a treat.

I talked Rolli and Vivian into entering some of their art work into the fair this year.

Honestly I think that I was more excited about it than they where.

But it was still kinda cool for them to find their pictures amongst all the other stuffs.

Vivian with her painting that won a 1st place sticker :)

Rolli in front of his painting that also won a 1st place sticker.

I'm not sure what the judging criteria was 

but it seemed that most of the projects had the same little blue sticker.

We still had to do one more thing before leaving the fair...

Carnival RIDES!

Vivian, Rolli and Felix on the Dragon roller-coaster!

Vivian LOVED this! 

She laughed, screamed and waved the whole time.

Rolli really liked it at first.

Then he decided that was enough.

Rolli and Vivian on the Airplane ride.

Same one we did last year,

but this year they wanted to go by themselves.

Two rides and we already ran out of tickets.  

So the smaller 3 kids just watched Otto on the bigger rides.

Vivian and Felix watching Chloe and Otto zoom by!

It won't be long and I'll just have to buy the kids wrist bands for all the rides.

Once again.

Fun times at the fair!
