The Fair and Derby, 2009!

Ok, it's obviously been too long since I've posted since I have to start with fair pictures, and the fair was a month and a half ago! BUT - we had a BLAST at the fair this year (as usual), and of course we also loved cheering on my brother Linsey in the demo derby! Trevor stayed with Geoff's mom while I took Jaylen to the derby. I was a little nervous taking Jaylen, since it's SO loud, and there are just so many people, not to mention a totally new place. But, Jaylen surprised me. He had so much fun, and was so excited to see all these cars crashing in to each other! We used Geoff's shooting earmuffs to help deaden the sound (we've used these before and they are a life-saver with Jaylen!), which really helped. We ended up getting tickets to the evening derby, so we took Trevor along for that. He also thought the derby was great, and both boys cheered along with the rest of us. Since Geoff was busy all day Monday helping with the derby car, the four of us went back on Tuesday to see the fair together.

Trevor loved the little chicks...
