THE FAIR

Friday we went to the Fair. Let me just say, I love doing this every summer.
Thomas was so excited as we walked into the fair.
His face was lit up by all that was going on.
He just kept pointing at everything.

His first ride was on the cars.
We rode them over and over again.
Then I put him on here.
His cousin was supposed to ride but backed out last minute.
Thomas was not getting off.

So here is where I got nervous as he would go up high by himself.
It wasn't really that high but for a little guy this is big.

Like I said we rode these a lot.
However he did start acting bad & wanting to wiggle out of the seat belt and stand up.
The slide was exhausting. Up & down 100 plus times.
Even the carny people were picking on me.

Dad arrives and it is his turn. I am done!
The dragon coaster.
Remember I said Luke hated it until last year.
Well he must have forgotten the fun he had last year
because he didn't come off with this big smile.

I loved the two of them riding together.

Thomas didn't like the merry-go-round.
He wanted off so he could go ride these trucks.


Luke will be my happy merry-go-round kid.

Lots of laughs and giggles on this one.

Time to ride the pony's.
Wasn't sure if Thomas would do this but he loved it.
Luke has always loved the pony's.

Time to see the animals.
OK, Luke got to see the animals.
Thomas was worn out.
The big finish was checking out all the tractors.

Luke just couldn't believe this tire was bigger than him.


From 12:00 PM until 10:00 PM we enjoyed the fair.
I could not imagine not doing this every year, no matter how exhausting it is.

Look at all that fun your kids had until they were knocked out! I love things like this. I wished they had something like that here.

Your children are so cute! I'm glad you all had a wonderful time.

Thanks for sharing those great shots!

What a fun time! Every pictures is just great! We have the carnival here with the same rides and the slides too, oh and you have a chance to win a very small stuffed animal for only 8 dollars! The kids just love it, I think they rode the little cars a million times.

Heather said...

What a great mom you are! You wore them OUT:) Sounds like y'all know how to have some fun!

Looks like you guys had a blast! We took my son to the county fair this year. He's only 9 months so he didn't enjoy it as much as he will in the coming years. He was afraid of the animals... Those were some strange sounds he's never heard before!

Heatherlyn said...

So much fun and big smiles! I love the fair too! I didn't plan well enough this year to make it an outting for our family. We have been the last few years. I'll have to do better next year. It really is a wonderful thing to do as a family!

Ha, it probably sounds like I am so ungrateful to be a SAHM! I'm not (I really hope you didn't think that!) but the aspect of being home and Marlee is still too little for dance, swimming ya know all the fun little activities...it will help once library starts that will at least get us out once a week!

Anyhow, have a great day!

It looks like you guys had so much fun. Or, at least your boys did! I love that they were able to play in the tractors. They must have just LOVED that! JJ would go crazy for something like that.

I grew up in a tiny city that threw a huge fair every year. Now, where I live, there's nothing like it (except the PNE which is too big and too busy)... the one we went to this year was pathetic!

Brandi said...

No, I didn't take it like that...I just wanted you to know that I am not ungrateful! LOL Just miscomunication because we are writing back and forth instead of talking to eachother face to face! LOL

Anyhow, have a great day!
