My kids are great at reminding me of our traditions, one of which is our backyard fair. We have come to look forward to and anticipate this event. We switched things up this year and offered different activities. We filled the wading pool with fish and added 25 goldfish for the kids to catch (reminiscent of the Oakley pool's fish scramble when I was younger.)
Piper brought 2 of her adorable baby goats for a petting zoo.
The kids loved bottle feeding them, watching them play, and listening to their sweet bleats.
Our newest and most popular attraction was Dad's merry-go-round swing we brought back with us after the family reunion..
There was always a long line.
People are always so creative when it comes to the fair food treats they bring. This year we had nachos and some yummy homemade donuts.
Tastes like the fair!
We had some entries for our open class exhibits.
Ruby sporting her fancy face paint and showing off her goldfish. Sadly, none of the fish fared well. As Piper said "fish from WalMart are the best one day pets."
Even Delsie got in on the festivities.
