It can't be Summer unless...

You spend endless days at the beach and... Endless hours at the county fair!!!
One of my favorite summer tradition is to go to the Ventura County Fair. It never seems to disappoint and we all have way too much fun! This year we were lucky to go with all the Monson girls and we had so much fun!

Shane loves being the big boy and going on all kids of crazy rides! I around finding what he will ride next. I love seeing him independent and carefree running around and playing.


Trevor likes to be like his big brother but sometimes he's a little unsure once he gets on those crazy rides!


The fear turns into happiness once the ride is over and he has conquered yet another ride! As Shane, he loves running around picking what ride he wants to go on next but is much more selective than big brother.
I always love the petting zoo and so does Mr. Trevor. He loves running around with the animals. This is something he has loved doing each year since he could walk.

Somehow they let both talked me into letting them ride this ride alone! I couldn't see their faces much but they said they loved going on an airplane!

Nothing beats some lemonade and all the yummy food at the Fair!

We had so much fun with Sadie and Lucy.

Finally, Trevor is big enough for some of the big kid rides but soon we found that he just wanted to watch Shane on many of the rides!

It also can't be Summer unless we go to the beach! The sun on our backs and the cold waves crashing into our feet is endless summer fun.

All the kids dug and dug which meant the gift of the sand kept giving once we got home in the bath and the car!
I love how Trevor and Lucy usually pair off.


Then Shane and Sadie pair off. All having a blast doing their own thing and enjoying each other too.
Summer days are pretty much gone. All the fun in the sun. Days at the beach and playing with cousins has come and gone. Now all we have are all the wonderful memories we have created to what was a perfect Summer.

I love the ferris wheel picture- you can just taste the pure delight in Shane! The only way it could get better is if I were there. Haha, just kidding! :-)
