Last week we had our County Fair. We took the boys last year, but it was amazing how much more they could do in one year!
On the Merry Go Round with Daddy
Then Seth picked a ride that he just barely met the height requirements for… I was kind of shocked. He kept calling it the boats. The seats looked like little buckets and it went high in the air and spun around really fast. Daddy rode with him, and I just knew Seth would cry or something. But, he never did. The only thing he said when he got off… “My tummy started hurting.” Daddy said his did too! You won’t be able to make them out in the picture below… but I couldn’t not document Seth’s first big ride!
Now to the mind scrambler
And the Ferris Wheel
A Fishing Game
And the real boat ride
Petting farm
Then I was told by some locals… If I really wanted to see something, I needed to catch the Mule Races at the Fair.
Waiting on it to start
Cuddling with Mimi
Old Glory
Then before the real races… they had Stick Horse races for kids. Seth brought his stick horse. And then the announcer said anyone could run… so we put Levi up there too.
Here is Seth rounding the corner. It was so cute to watch them run!
Here is Levi… he was close to last… but not completely last! Precious!!!
Technically my son, should have won the race, because the rules stated you had to have a stick horse to race. 🙂 (I am not competitive or anything!) While the winner was an older girl who ran with out a horse and I think she got $5. All the participants got $1 for running and the boys thought that was pretty cool!!!
Now all the boys want to know is… “when is the fair coming back???”
