The County Fair

Our county fair started last week and we finally got a chance to join in on the fun today. Grandma and Grandpa Barton are here so what better way to celebrate than cotton candy and rides?!


First up was the ferris wheel. She's been wanting to ride it since the fair was set up last weekend. It is hard to see but there she is with Daddy in the purple-

Next up the carousel. I thought she'd be bored with it but this thing was intense. I was super dizzy after!


Next was the first ride she did on her own, the train. She thought it was pretty lame- 

Next were the cars. Remember how much she freaked last year? She was a rock star this year.  She was a little unsure because it jerked to get started but relaxed after a few times around.

She needed a cotton candy break after the cars. 

Then it was time for the flying dogs. It looks like she's waving but actually her hands where just sticky from the cotton candy so she didn't want to touch anything. LOL. She also thought this was kind of lame.

 We FINALLY got a smile on the kiddie pirate ship. She loved it! Just look at that face!

Poor Jack zonked out after going for a walk with Grandpa (thanks Gpa!). Next year he can do a few small things with sis. 

I tried to get her to go down the big slide but she told me it "was boring" and she wanted to do "that" while pointing to the roller coaster. Yickes. I have a clear memory of my brother freaking out on a roller coaster at the and just knew this wouldn't be good. Daddy thought it was a brilliant idea and bought himself a ticket to get in line:

This ride was so intense they made her take her shades off. But she didn't mind and before you know it, they were off:

Holy cow did this thing move. Her little head was being thrown around but she didn't want Daddy to hold her. She had SO much fun on it! 


Look at that confident walk down the stairs. She was right at home on this ride!

I wanted to get a cute picture of her so I had her sit and tell me how she felt when she was on the roller coaster (thinking she'd smile). This is the face she gave me! 

When it was over she decided she wanted to go again. But this time with Grandma. LOL! Good think Grandma Barton is a good sport! 

LOL!!! 

Jack woke up just in time to see all the fun. I think he'll wait a few years before getting on the Cobra. 

And one more of our little daredevil. We know Daddy has at least 1 ride buddy when she gets tall enough.

Thanks for visiting Gma and Gpa Barton! We had so much fun at the fair and can't wait to see you again in September!
