Scott & I are going to the Puyallup Fair today with 3 of our friends. There are a few special things about the fair. First of all it just reminds me of growing up in the country. Going to the Tillamook County Fair every summer was a really big deal for my family. Everyone would meet up there, friends, cousins, aunts, uncles, and grandparents. And the kids would run around and go on rides and the adults would hang out in the beer garden or watch the pig and ford races. If you haven't heard of the pig and ford races you should look it up, it's pretty hilarious. I love seeing all the farm animals and the craft exhibits. Scott is obsessed with riding the zipper and we'll probably do that a few times, but my favorite is the big wooden rollercoaster. And this is the only day every year that I eat a corndog. And an elephant ear.
