We did it!! We made it to the last and craziest day of the Idaho State Fair! We had been really wanting to go but weren't sure with a new baby and little active Jane if it would work...well we made it work, and we had so much fun!
The food at the fair, I think, is always the favorite part for many. We never made it over for an elephant or tiger ear, but we did get: freshly squeezed raspberry lemonade, a footlong corn dog (why do I love them! Cause I DO!), fresh Idaho potato fries, a turkey leg (Mister James' favorite), a hamburger and an amazing strawberry slushy/smoothie. We loaded up in the liquid treats cause we were all so hot. And they were really delicious!
Jane had SO much fun petting and feeding the animals, she was in HEAVEN! She just giggled and laughed the whole while she was with them. She's a Doolittle at heart. And then she also got to ride two fair rides. I was so looking forward to the Ferris wheel, it's my personal favorite. However, no one under 5 could ride :(, we'll have to wait in that one. But I sent James and Jane on a "balloon" ride and she seemed quite intrigued. We then let her ride the little kid boat ride to and she was adorable. She played with the bell and steering wheel for a short moment because when she realized she was in water her hand went right over the boats edge to splash. It was pretty cute.
Then the biggest reason we did the fair: the Demolition Derbyy!!!! For all my years in college and us living here I had never been to one. James also had never been to one and was more than eager and excited to go watch cars crash into each other. It was really fun and our kids were absolutely amazing! Jane even made a new friend, she does everywhere we go!
We had such a great a time being together for the afternoon and evening. We sure have packed in fun memories during little Williams first weeks of life. This mama is a little worn out, but you can't stop life when you love the train ride. And I really do love life! I'm so thankful for the memories and times I can share with my sweet family. I love them so much!
