Puyallup Fair

Well, we "Did the Puyallup" on Monday night! We like to go on days that aren't very busy, like week nights. To our surprise though, it was busy!!! Apparently, others have caught on. Anyways, it was great! We ate, checked out the animals, and of course rode a some rides. I think Samantha is going to be one of those people that just can't get enough of the rides, and has to ride every single one. She loves them! It's really fun to watch her get so excited. Parker on the other hand...well, he's not much into anything. He likes to watch and tell us that it's "too loud" and that "it's scary". He'll grow out of it, but right now I just wish he'd enjoy it! I just have to keep reminding myself that he's only two. Maybe next year he'll loosen up a bit. Both kids enjoyed the animals though. They're always fun to look at. We had two highlights of the evening though...One a little scary and one that was really cool! The scary one was while we were enjoying some yummy fair food when all of the sudden this guy walks in front of us and has a seizure! He fell to the ground, hitting his face really bad on the cement. He continued to have his seizure while blood was pouring from his face. Yeah, not a good sight while you're trying to eat. I lost my appetite pretty quick. Luckily, paramedics were very close and he got help almost instantly. I felt bad for him:( The COOL part was that Crosby, Stills, and Nash were playing that night! Jeremy is a HUGE fan and because of him, I've grown to really like and enjoy their music as well. If we had known they were going to be there I'm sure we would have gotten tickets, but we didn't, so we stood outside the stadium and listened while eating cotton candy. It was pretty fun, actually. Jeremy was in heaven. Here's a few pics from our night.

  2. We must have just missed you guys since we were there earlier in the day! Jack loved seeing pictures of Samantha riding the same rides he did. I'm glad you guys had a great time despite witnessing a seizure!
