The Walla Walla Fair and the Boys First Night Away.... Mommy did just fine!

A few weeks ago we drove out to Walla Walla and went to the fair.  Valerie had free passes from her work (thank you!) and they met us there to share in the fun.  It was a beautiful day and the boys rode rides for the first time and thought that was great.  Rachel went along in her stroller and made some noises at the animals and was otherwise her usual easy going self.  Here's pics from our trip below. 

Fair food! 

Waiting in line for rides.  We weren't sure if the boys would like them,  particularly Ben who is more reserved but he saw an airplane ride and immediately wanted to go!

The airplane ride!  It was so much fun watching my little brown head and blond head go around and around.

A dragon ride with Mommy!

Rachel liked the animals,  she made noises at them. 

Popcorn!

Car Ride!

I call this one: Hot Baby with Goats.

The airplane ride.... again.....

 To end our day we dumped, I mean left,  the boys at Valerie and Dana's house.  They'd invited them to sleep over before but they, or maybe mom,  wasn't ready.   This time we packed up clothes and their special blankets and left them to chase the cats, chase Harley and chase Uncle Dana the rest of the night.  They did great and didn't come home until dinner time the next day.  It felt so funny to Aaron and I to just have Rachel in the car and then just one baby at home that night and following day.  We've never had just one baby!!  Thanks Uncle Dana and Aunt Valerie for taking such good care of them.
