Fair- Silly pirates!

I LOVE the Puyallup fair! We didn't think we would be able to go on a budget this year but my mom got us free tickets and there was a free shuttle so we didnt have to pay for parking! Well...and we ate lunch at Costco before we left! I love Malachi so much, he is so good to me. I had a really grumpy thing happen to me and he can always cheer me up! We had so much fun!
We checked out all of the farm things, giant pumpkins, the water pump, jams, jellies, honeys, and such! They always have great displays!


....and we went through all of the barns and I had to take a picture of every cute baby animal! This is a really cute baby Cow! WE saw the cows, chickens, bunnies, dogs, horses...

...and this goat? This goat was so funny because all the other goats in the pen were acting goat-ish and this guy was staning ontop of the spindle and acting like he was king of the rock!




Have you ever played the game "pass the pigs" ? I wanted to get a sharpy and draw dots on these guys!



MALACHI'S FAVORITE- The hobby hall!!!!!! If you find your birth year on a penny you get to keep the penny (Ohhh, AHHH)





in the hobby hall there was also a cribbage tournement! Malachi had to sit down and play a game!

And we got to watch a few free shows....

Okay so this is a child's circus and instead of a lion they had a dog, and the guy used a funny voice...however the dog was REALLY good and the act was funny! So we stood and watched!









We also has to watch the Hypno-Chick.....She was anoying and the music was bad- however the show was SO FUNNY! This was a few of the guys strutting their stuff on mucle beach! I wish I would have gotten a picture of the other guys...she said "take off your shirts if you feel comfortable...So as you can see one young cute guy chose to leave his on- the two other guys were BIG FAT HAIRY OLD MEN and they ripped it off like no big deal! It was so funny!




So this was my FAVORTIE show....


So they set up this 10 foot deap pool and this blow-up pirate ship and these diving boards and diving platforms up this pole....So basicly they were just doing REALLY COOL diving stunts- they they would dive together-or holding eachother, or pretend to fall and dive cool...and every time they would do a trick stunt the captain would go "Silly pirate"!


They were obiously all really tallented, but it was very nerve racking for me to watch because all of this is Portible...how can you possibly have somthing secure of safe when its only there for a two weeks.....the last dive one guy did it from 50 ft up----50 ft up into a 10 foot pool!



We had so much fun at the fair this year, we didn't ride any rides and we didn't eat a lot of food (exept for scones and fudge) but we really had a blast spending the day together!

You saw WAY more stuff than we did. I would have enjoyed the divers I think. Sorry I just remembered I didn't call you back!!! I am considering doing the class. I just need some more details, like how long will it last, what I would need to provide, what I need to teach, headbands or clips, etc. and then I will have to check w/jeremy to make sure its all fine and dandy and that he can watch the girls, and when it is again. I guess the best thing to do would be email me, and then I can try to call you. I just never really talk on the phone much because I am always all over the place.
