Onion Days

We decided to hit Walla Walla Onion Days this year.  We went several years ago with Will's parents but a storm and being gone have kept us away since then.  It ended up being a fun day and the weather was perfect.


You can't go to onion days without being an onion - and eating an onion, naturally.


There were lots of onion games that the kids played.  They are like the basic carnival game but you use an onion instead of a ball.  The kids got to decorate onions too but I didn't get any good pictures of that.


There were a couple of demonstrations where you could watch people making their product.


Whitney and Rachel find an onion to stand by for a quick picture.


Adam thought this pool of water was neat.  He loved splashing in it and did it for a long time.  It was actually a solar controlled fountain, which I didn't know existed.  Adam just thought it was play time.


There was a big area all about conservation.  Whitney and Rachel try to power their light bulbs.


Playing in the dirt/water table.  This was a hit with all the kids.


And there was a big tractor that kids could sit on and pretend to drive.
Anyway, it was a fun day.  I am glad that we were able to go.
