Foot-long corndogs and other food on a stick

One of the Wilkes' family traditions has been going to the Pima County Fair. This entails a mass race to the gate, a foot-long corndog, a deep-fried twinky, ice cream on a stick, The Wave, and standing next to the Budweiser Clydesdales (whose feet are as big as my head). We had so much fun with all of our family! 22 people and 3 strollers is quite a group. By the end of the night, we were all doing our own thing and had a blast doing it. Here are a few highlights:

Courtney and Matt with our baby girl (and Matt with Sariah's hat on):


Aiden and Parker wouldn't have dinner or do anything until they rode the ferris wheel.


Jared and I with the horses (the smell seriously reminded me of the Tanque Verde house):


Sariah got thirsty...


And finally, the boys going down the big-boy slide on gunny sacks! Aunt Courtney was brave:



We had so much fun! It will be a whole different story next year when Sariah is old enough to go on some of the small rides. Yee-haw!
