The weekend after the Palouse Empire Fair is the fair in Moscow. This one is fun since it is free and has two train rooms. Since Andrew loves trains, we spent quite a bit of time there. It was hard persuading him to leave. Grandpa and Grandma Mertes came with us and we had a great time!
Aaron is getting into Lego trains so we had to take a picture for him of the ones on display.
Grandma and Andrew did some digging in the Palouse archeology sand pit looking for artifacts found on the Palouse.
Andrew was quite impressed with the size of this pig at the fair. It was a long pig.
Of course we had to check out the one tractor they had.
Andrew went on his first fair ride! He wanted to ride the airplane one but once he got on and realized I couldn’t go with him, he freaked out so we tried the car one. Grandma and I gave him a lot of encouragement and then he felt better about it. Andrew made car noises, turned the steering wheel as he went around the corner and gave Grandma high fives as he went by. Since there wasn’t a line, the carnival guy let him go around twice since Andrew loved it so much. After that he was hooked and wanted to ride all the rides and play all the games. I had to tell him I didn’t have that much money with me. Maybe next year.
Grandpa and Andrew got a flag from a booth and Andrew would walk around waving his flag. It made Grandpa feel very proud.
Our last stop was to see the fire trucks. Andrew loves fire trucks and had a good time “driving.”
Afterwards Grandpa and Grandma treated us to lunch at McDonalds. Andrew was in heaven! He had a great day!
