Van Wert County Fair 2009

We spent a lot of time at the fair this year! And when I say "we" I mean the boys and I...Bill despises the fair, so he spent as little time as possible there. I feel like I could have taken a lot more pictures, but this is all I got.

They LOVED the rides, especially the Dragon rollercoaster, and the slide! It's hard to say how many times they actually went down this slide! When they had wristbands on, there were blocks of time 30-45 minutes long where they went over and over!!

Both boys again entered the kiddie tractor pull. They both did great! No trophies, but I think they enjoyed it.

A tractor pull action photo of Nick:
We took the boys to the OSTPA Tractor pulls on Monday night. Pictures didn't come out too great of the actual tractors, but some of them were pretty cool! They were SOOO loud!!! We tried earplugs with the boys, but they only lasted for a couple pulls. We just plugged our ears each time!

Here's Bill & Nick waiting for the next pull.

And finally, a picture of the boys and Grandma Betty! They were so good to us here at the rootbeer trailer!! Everyday the boys asked for either a hot dog or a rootbeer from Grandma Betty!
