We have been debating taking the girls to Valleyfair this summer, but finally decided that we would settle with some rides at the Steele County Free Fair in Owatonna. Not sure about all of you, but am really astounded with the price of tickets to Valleyfair - especially when I am not sure if the girls would even be tall enough to go on most of the rides.
Anyway, the $17 wristbands at the SCFF looked pretty good so we met my parents there for a night of fun! Aside from the consistent drizzle, it was a fun time and the girls got in plenty of rides - even some they probably shouldn't have been on.
As you can see from the attached pictures, the girls were not real impressed with the "kiddy" rides - this is what happens when you start the night with "the tornado", never work your way down the excitement ladder!!
Next year we will once again debate the trip to Valleyfair, but are always open to other suggestions (if you have any).
