Fair Fun!



October isn't complete without a trip to the NC State Fair. We absolutely love the fair and made an afternoon of it. After the boys got up from their naps we headed out to the fairgrounds and got there about 3 p.m. Our first stop was the pony rides. Chandler had been saying for weeks that is what he wanted to do. Both boys rode a pony. Chandler rode "Indiana Jones" and Brighton rode "Elmo". After that we got lemonades and headed to the ferris wheel. After a 30 minute wait that was more trying on Dad's patience than anybody else's we finally got our turn.

Brighton wasn't able to ride all the rides because he's not quite the minimum 36", but he did get to ride some of them. He absolutely loved the swings and was grinning ear to ear the entire time. Sometimes when Chandler would get to ride something and Brighton couldn't I would have to distract Brighton with either food or a game. He especially liked the fishing one.
We all enjoyed the fair food and had corn dogs for dinner. Mommy enjoyed a fried snickers and ate and extra one for the baby too. Yummy!
