County Fair Birthday


Friday, the 8th, we headed out on what has become a birthday tradition. Kevin came up with the idea a few years ago that Ian could invite a friend to go with us to the Washington County Fair and we would buy the all-access wristbands for the rides. We took our friend Brandon Dye again this year and the boys had a blast! We were worried when the rain came pouring down about half an hour before the rides opened. The carnival shut the rides down because of lightning and it got a bit sad in our little group. Soon the rain stopped and they fired up the rides and the boys were off.
Ian felt very brave this year and went on all but the really grown-up rides like the Zipper and circle roller coaster. He even braved the ride that made him cry last year and declared it "Awesome!". The guys declared next year they will try more of the scarier rides, but I don't know.
