The Puyallup Fair!

It's hard to believe that it is September already and time for the fair again.  We took Logan and Lia downtown on Saturday to spend the day eating, riding, and animal watching.  We went in the morning for some food and rides and back in the evening to watch Uncle Oscar perform and gander at the animals.  As always, good times were had.  Logan hung in there like a champ and Lia couldn't get enough of Sillyville.  I think we blew a small fortune on ride tickets for Lia...so it's a good thing that we have another twelve months to save up for our return!

 

Lia and I eating the quintessential Puyallup Fair treat:  scones with jam!

 

First stop in Sillyville:  the carousal, of course!

And down we go!

Our faithful sidekick--as cute as can be!
