The Washington County Fair is over, insert a big phew here. This has been our 5th year running Tutu's Hawaiian Shave Ice booth at the fair. If you're around Portland the last week of July, come on by our booth and try a shave ice with ice cream in the bottom, my favorite is Tiger's Blood. It felt weird this year, I wasn't pregnant, nursing, or having a baby strapped to my person. My kids could walk by themselves, and they loved all the animals and sights to see. Here's some memories of years past....
2007, I made matching cowgirl outfits for the girls

Hailey, have i ever told you how much I love the whole county fair vibe? When i first heard about this booth (from paula) as I was moving those shaved ice machines (they are really heavy)I was hit with a wave of envy. Every year from the time I was 8 until I was 18 I would spend the entire 5 days at our county fair showing our dairy cows and sheep or working in our wards scone booth. Those were the days. I miss it and wish my kids got to experience some of that. So if you ever need some help the week for your booth, PLEASE ASK ME.
What great pictures! Your girls are so darling.
I love the old school pictures. Nathan and Colby are eating the same flavors they always eat now! Crazy Kids. I miss that sweatshirt I was wearing in that pic. I think I lost it then too :( haha and i love the comment on your pic with the short hair. I try to block those memories out. they never happened
What a blast from the past!! There really are great memories from the fair and I really can't believe I've missed two years in a row. My kids are so deprived. We'll have to make a special trip out next year.
