Clark County Fair!

Well, its that time of year again! Most of you know that the Clark County Fair is something we look forward to ALL YEAR LONG! We LOVE the Demolition Derby and Hypnotist shows, we LOVE cruisin around the displays, we LOVE spending our "pocket change" on greasy fair food, and best of all... we LOVE people watching! There are soooo many crazys to be seen at our county fair :)

This year they put on an amazing display of animals. Not only were there Bald Eagles and Owls within an arms reach, but so were Tigers and Lions! You can't even get this close in the zoo. Believe it or not, but these pictures on NOT zoomed in...

Malia was having fun trying to say the animal names and their sounds. She really liked saying "hoot hoot" and "moooo".

"Don't ya think my tractor's sexy?!?"

Gotta get a picture with the big scary animals! Malia kept staring at this dog in awe... as if wondering how the heck he got so big.

We went home for nap time, and I caught this cute little girl looking EXTREMELY adorable as we got ready to head back out to the fair.

We headed to the Dock Dogs, something we've missed every year, and watched this dog jump 23feet!

Thanks to our neighbs, the Wishards, for telling us about this event :)

Most rides were a RIP-OFF, but we splurged and took Malia on the carousel. It was a test to see if she would do well on a $6 pony ride. Good thing we tried the carousel first, the fun lasted for maybe a minute. Maybe NEXT year she'll be ready for a pony ride, AND make it worth the money :)

Charity and Landon having a blast!

Steve and Laelle anxiously awaiting her turn to ride next year!

(The Kelsey's are also good neighborhood friends.)

Here's the group of us from the hood waiting for the derby to begin... have we started another "neighborhood" tradition? (sorry for the blurry pic)

"Welcome to the 2009 Demolition Derby!!!"

(rumble, rumble, rumble)

Malia cheering... "Yay!!!!"

It is always fun when this happens...

Our Brewer Family Tradition... A SUCCESS!

Here's a really freaky picture I accidentally took... the people are see-through! The crazy thing is that I didn't notice anyone walk by when I took the picture. Could they be the Demolition Derby Ghosts of the past?
