FAIR!

On Saturday I took the kids to Blackfoot to go to the parade to kick off fair week. Mitch had to work :( so he wasn't able to go with us. My dad, brother, sister-in-law, and niece were all in the parade so Michael, Kelli, and I hung out with my mom to cheer for them. We sat at the end of parade, so it was a long wait. Luckily, we had candy to keep Michael entertained.

This is my brother, Lonny's, entry. He recently bought this Mr. Appliance franchise. They repair all types of appliances (he just repaired my oven). They service Pocatello, Blackfoot, Idaho Falls, Rexburg and all the towns between. So next time you need an appliance repaired, give him a call!!

This is my Dad's entry! KUPI 99 Idaho's Best Country music station and the ONLY station that I listen too!
Michael really enjoyed the parade, especially all of the horses and "BIG" trucks. Kelli slept through most of the parade, until a piece of candy that was thrown hit her in the head!

After the parade, we headed to the fair. Lonny and Jesse live on Shilling Ave, so we were able to park in their drive-way (FOR FREE!) and walk to the fair. Michael and Kelli both fell asleep before we even got into the fair, so Mom and I took advantage and ate some yummy lunch! I had to wake Michael up so he could ride some rides. The two that he chose were...

...the "Nemo" boats

and the "Mater" trucks.

Michael had so much fun and wanted to ride more, but they were $3 each, so we moved on to the petting zoo. The petting zoo wasn't as exciting as I remember from previous years, but Michael enjoyed it. He got to pet goats, bunnies, and puppies. The goats were his favorite and he had to pet each goat.

Michael had a great time! I am glad that it is over. I am not a huge fan of the fair. Until next time...EISF!!
