The County Fair

What better place to spend one of the last days of summer??!!  But, it was a much different experience after having attended VIRTUS training.  ARRGGHH!  I kept thinking this was a pedophile playground!  All of these kids running around with minimal parental supervision.  I kept a watchful eye.

It is a flat admission rate that includes all rides.  The kids were excited to put their wristbands on.  They first wanted to go look at the animals.  But, to get there, you had to walk through the corridor of fair games.  Fortunately, for us, they won on the first game so we used that as a way not to have to play any more games.  Unfortuantely for us, it was winning gold fish.  Yeah!  Two more creatures to take care of.




Next, it was on to the barn.  It was fun to see how excited our kids were to be up close to the animals and how excited the owners were to show off their prized animals. Most of the "owners" were kids themselves.



I like how this one was looking right at them!


This girl was excited to let Elsa hold it!


Thank you Disney for making Elsa a popular name.  Sarcasm duly noted.







Then, we took the kids to ride horses.  Elsa kept saying "Look!  I am not scared anymore!"  She is getting to be so brave and more willing to try new things.




And, off to the rides!  They did a mini-roller coaster, the giant slide, this train, and a few others.



Our final stop….The truck pull.  





Goldfish update….and then there was one.
