Stevens County Fair

The Stevens County Fair is truly a summer staple for us! Nothing like breaking out your newest school clothes (who cares if it is 90 degrees and you're wearing long sleeves and new jeans - you look COOL!), hanging on the midway with friends, going to Billy D and the Crystals...wait, nevermind, that was 15+ years ago! Living away from Morris now for a number of years and attending a few other fairs has made me realize how much nicer the Stevens County fair is in comparison. They have a great variety of entertainment, food, and things to look at...including the people. Ahem, anyway, it's always fun to watch the joy in your kid's eyes, it doesn't take long before the rides are the main source of entertainment. The petting zoo and farm animals are always a hit, and of course "wristband night" where they can ride all the rides they want from 6-10pm. Whew! Teague has older cousins, so he's been introduced to the big rides waaaaaay early. Poor Lola is on her own with the "baby" rides. At least for this year!

On our way to Morris, pit stop in Starbuck because someone wouldn't leave their seatbelt on and opted for a timeout.
