Just Outside of the City Limit Sign
 
 
Saturday, we took the kids to the Kenton County Fair.  It'd been a few years since we've taken them & actually this was the first time to Kenton County's Fair.  The weather was good, and the kids had fun.  The girls were their usual fearless selves, and the boys hardly rode a thing.  We rode a ride as a family & then the girls got in line for another ride.  Hank spotted one of his buddies from football in the same line and actually got the courage to ride.  He stood in line, and got on, but then chickened out at the last second.  I don't know if he'll ever be a dare devil or fearless when it comes to rides.  I guess only time will tell & if he's not, that's OK too.  I'm usually not a ride rider either!
 
 

 
 
There was a Horse Show & Truck and Tractor Pulls that we checked out.  Creag & I both enjoyed watching the Pulls because it brought back good memories from both of our childhoods.  Our Dad's took us when we were little and we both loved it!  Wyatt was a little unsure of them at first, but ended up liking them.  He also loved the Horse Show, but the other kids were a little bored by it. 


 
 

While the girls were riding rides, Creag took the boys over to a game where he won them a little something to keep them occupied.  Guns!  Put your hands up!!  The Start Ship was another ride that caused some fear.  Sky & Sam stood in line, walked on & then walked right back off!  They were unsure of getting stuck to the wall & then moving up & down.  The thing also spun in circles the whole time, fast, so I don't blame them!


 
 



 
 
Besides all of the fun above & the Lemon Shake Up that we had to drink there was also A LOT of pickle sightings.  Because I have Dill kids, that's a pretty big deal and I had to get some pictures!  Creag actually won the pickle that Skylar's holding for her so that's now apart of her bedroom décor.  We headed home before the fair closed down, worn out from all of the fun!  I'll have other snippets from our weekend tomorrow!
