A Night at The FAIR

Chris's parents took all of us to the Fair last night and the kids had sooooooooo much fun!We were hesitant about going because it had been raining but luckily it lightened up and the kids wore their raincoats my parents had gotten them for Christmas. Preston barely made the 36'' mark to ride the rides! At first I was a little worried about Preston getting scared on some of the rides because last year he cried on the row boats and we all know how slow those go. Kayla took off running and wanted to ride everything in sight even the adult rides. She threw a fit because she didn't want to ride the bumper cars, she wanted to ride the Sizzler! They both were winners on the duck game and won big balloon dolphins that squeak. They also really enjoyed winning some goldfish... we came home with three. (We already had one fish  so Kayla decided it was appropriate that he was named King, the rest were Queen, Princess, and Prince.) I was surprised when they both went on the spaceship ride. Preston looked at me and said,"I don't like this mommy!" with his eyes so big and wondering why he couldn't sit up. I couldn't see Kayla because she was on the other side of Chris but Grandaddy told me that her eyes were wide open and she was squeezing his arm. They were spoiled with all sorts of foods, blue and pink cotton candy, nachos, lemonades, funnel cakes, and caramel candy apples! We had eaten at Wendy's right before hoping to save some money but ummm guess not. Chris's dad's favorite game is the Mouse Game......he won a stuffed pig, dog, and bear for the kids. Later in the night Chris took off to ride some adult rides! I love FREAK OUT! It is my favorite! Every year I look for that ride and will not leave until I have ridden it. We rode the Tornado and I almost blacked out and got sick. I was running fever earlier yesterday morning and had just eaten all that junk food...haha not the best ride for me! The whole family rode the magic carpet slides. It was so funny because everytime we raced, Chris's mom would get stuck and we all just burst with laughter. We had a FUN FAMILY NIGHT.
