Do the Puyallup!!

Its that time of year again!!
I love the Puyallup fair its so much fun. My family usually all gets together and we go together on a weekend, well this year with Logan's work schedule he wasn't going to be able to do that so we decided that we were going to go Wednesday and Kason and I will go again on the 20th with my family.
It was tons of fun. We didn't get there until after I got off work and battled through traffic. We got there about 6:30pm and went straight to the best burgers EVER!
Earthquake Burgers are HUGE, gooey and messy and we love them! we got the double cheese with onions all over it.. YUMMA! we split it, thats how huge it is and we are FULL afterwards too. so good. I love fair food.
We then walked around the convention area for a bit looking at the different booths and etc. and then we stopped by Cow Chip cookies and got a bull chip. Of course Kason had to have his first cow chip!!Kason with his sticker!!his very first bite!and this is the bull chip. their large cookie. note that my son has a pretty good size head and that cookie dwarfs it!
next we made our way to the free milk. Usually its Wilcox giving out yummy samples of their chocolate and regular milk, but they went out of bussiness around here and Darigold took over this part of the fair.
Kason about to have his very first drink of "moo juice" as my Grandpa Martinson calls it. this is chocolate flavor!his first taste....And this is his approval!! he loved it and drank a whole sample cup-okay not very big but still!Logan trying to give him another drink, but Kason being so impatient (wonder were he gets that?? lol) he is grabbing logan's hand and pulling it to his mouth!
After that we met up with Rae and Jess!!! it was awesome to see them again and hang out all night!! Alot of fun!
here we are!! being the total dork i am, the only picture i got of Jess was a funny face picture that she would prolly kill me if i put it up! lol
we walked around and looked at the animals and tried to go to the petting zoo, but it close just as we got there so we will have to hit that up next time. We then played games, Logan's favorite thing to do at the fair. We all played skee ball and won these funny looking dogs that were so fat and round looked more like pigs! Logan and i traded our two for this tiger!which of course we gave to Kason and he LOVED it! Logan also won Kason a lizzard and its super cute! Kason acutally has slept with it a few times already and holds it while in the car! and a picture of us! its blurry but oh well! we took it our selves!
all in all it was a great night! it was nice to spend it with logan and kason, but as well with Rae and Jess too! :)

meet sassy!

The family i nanny for got a new kitten! Last year when their beloved cat, Sammy, ran away i gave them a kitten from Logan's mom's place. This cat was to become one of the most loveable, tolerant cats known to man kind. as a kitten he would allow Addie to pick him up by his tail and run around with him. As he got older he let Ethan dress him up, put him in playhouse made out of boxes and played with Dannon all the time. Well over labor day weekend the family went out of town, and poor Alex (the new cat) got lost. we cant find him and so a week went by and Ethan realized that he was gone. This poor kid. Alex was like his best friend, animal wise. they loved eachother and it was super sad. So over the weekend they went to the Animal shelter and adopted sarsaparilla aka SASSY! okay so i have only meet her a few hours ago, but im in love. she tolerates the kids 100% lets them pick her up, poke her, etc. etc. etc. and Kason thinks she's a new toy but she never scratches them or anything! she is only a couple months old and beautiful! here is a picture or two of the cutie!

i just love tuxedo kitty's! and those blue eyes!

labor day weekend!

Hey everyone hope you all had a great three day weekend! for me it was 4 days! YAY! I left thursday night and headed up to Dosiwallups where we camp every year for labor day. This is a tradtion my family has done since i was REALLY little and since then it has grown from a few of us to about 50!! It was bittersweet though, Logan had to work the whole weekend so Kason and i treked up there alone. He did join us late sunday night and all Monday! yay! that was great! overall it was a great weekend! we enjoyed being with eachother, playing games, snacking, taking walks, hiking, and of course swimming in the COLD water!
Okay so this is blurry but its of my Grandpa McGuire who HATES getting his picture taken so i will take what i can get!!Kason trying to climb up my lega lovely shot of myselfand this is Andrew. My adorable hyperactive crazy wild child nephew!
My sister Amy and her youngest Hannahme and Maegan with our famous crazy upclose and personal pictures!
my brother in law Eric with Hannah his youngest! (maegan took this picture)our family loves to play games and the little ones joined in!Kason loved the corn hole game or otherwise known as the bean bag game! he kept sticking the monkey down the hole. here he is with uncle Steve!
and an upclose shoton sunday we went on our annual hike. We did a loop about 3.5 miles and it was fun. we had 5 adults and 10 kids!Thats my dad with Steve and Andrew in the backgroundKason on my back in the wrapadam and brinnon! he totally loved the hike and enjoyed every minute of it!Andrew on our cousin Scotty's shoulders. Scott was a champ and carried andrew the WHOLE time!our view most of the hike-main reason why Logan and i love washington!looking upthe canopy was so thick that when it began to rain we didnt really get wet at alland Brinnon at the end of the Hike. He was so happy!and this is the waterfall. We go here every year when we go camping. its just minutes away from our site. Its beautiful and its ICE cold. Of course we went swiming! What's our annunal trip without swimming in the freezing water and going numb?someone had put a log under some big boulders and stuck it out into the main pool area which is about 8feet deep. so of course we used it as a diving board and jumped off! here i am.and there goes adam!and there goes Scott!and here is my dad going up the side while we swam... and a bit of matthew's head! oopsand the three of us! the only ones brave enough to go into the water (or shall i say dumb enough lol) the water fall is two parts. there is what we call the bathtub which up about 10 feet and the main part of the falls goes into it and its about 3 feet deep and about 5-6feet wide. its awesome. then there is the pool area where all the water goes down into before it goes down the river. and of course a naked baby shot with dannon! kason loved it and we really had a great time, and can't wait for next year!
