Spokane Fair

We went to the Spokane Interstate Fair last week. The whole preschool went on a field trip. The kids are wearing their orange preschool field trip shirts.

It had been very hot out. However, the day of the fair, the weather changed dramatically. It was very cold during the morning we were at the fair! However, by lunchtime, the weather had warmed up.



Nathan and Elizabeth loved watching these water balls. It was their favorite exhibit.


Nathan was also a big fan of the hot tubs. He ran up to every one to check inside. He especially enjoyed the huge one that was also a pool.




Nathan also enjoyed the can crushing machine. He would have watched that thing all day. We had to go back twice.


Rides are ridiculously expensive. $3 a ride per kid! But we let the kids go on a few rides. Elizabeth was only big enough to go on the carousel as long as I was with her. She really enjoyed it!


Here she is watching Nathan on the car ride. She was too little. She seemed a bit sad.


Here is Nathan on the car ride! He always loves the car rides. He says they are his favorite.


I love to see Jeremy holding hands with both kids and walking around. It's just darling!


Lunch time! I was trying to get the kids to look at the camera. It didn't work so well.


Nathan also really liked the big pumpkins.



We got to ride on a little train. Nathan really liked that. First, we toured the big train and then got to go on a little ride.

The kids weren't too terribly impressed with the animals. Probably because we see the animals all the time on our rambles! I was hoping they would have some pigs at the fair because we don't see pigs often, but there were none there.

There were some ducks and rabbits that they liked to watch.

All in all, it was a fun day at the fair. It's so much nicer now that they are older. Elizabeth isn't quite as fussy and can walk.
