Fair and Fishes
We had a great time visiting Grandma Linda and Grandpa John (who looks a ton better). We made our annual pilgrimage to the Central WA Fair in Yakima (which Karri claims, and I claim the opposite, is better than the Western WA Fair).
Kids loved the rides (buying wristbands in advance is the only way to go).
Kids wanted to play a game. We agreed that it would be throwing ping pong balls into the bowls to try and win a goldfish. Thanks to the carney working the game, the kids got one ball in (OK, she got a ball in but it was hard to tell she did it, so thank you to her). They won the goldfish (and they generously gave us a 2nd so each kid would have one). So, now we are in $5 for 25 cents worth of goldfish.
Of course, goldfish need a tank. We went to PetSmart on the way home - picked up a small tank, some food, rocks, fake plant, and a rock cave. Of course the filter didn't work, so returned that the next day and bought a thermometer, water conditioner, and water tester strips. So, with fish, in to the process for about $100.
Both fishes have been sent to the big porcelain god. Whoops!

pook
Ralph came to visit Willa last night. I think this is about her 8th, compared to Ethan who maybe has puked twice.
