Fairest of the Fair

Last night we went to a local county fair and Annslee had a blast! I grew up going to this fair and I swear it was bigger back then (or was I just smaller??) I was a little concerned when we got to the gate because you had to be 36 inches tall to ride the rides and I didn't think she was that tall. I put her up to the mark on the wall and she barely was tall enough. I am still not sure she is 3 feet tall but she made it in on their mark so that is all I cared about . Anyway, we met up with Mia and her Mom and Dad and the fun began! When the girls saw each other they literally ran into each other's arms so make sure you make it to the end of the post and check out the video!



We started out on the carousel then we spotted a Dragon ride. Well with her love of Dragon Tales she just had to ride it. We let the Daddy's go along and do the spinning (I did ride it later and thought I would puke LOL)



Mia wasn't really sure she wanted to ride and it is hard to see but in the first pic Annslee is patting her back and trying to reassure her...too sweet



Daddy went to get the girls some ice cream while we let them ride some more. I don't have a picture of it but at one point Annslee and Mia were holding hands and Annslee raised Mia's arm and gave it a kiss Awwww



We were still on a ride when she spotted Daddy with her ice cream and she started yelling STOP to the guy running it...she really wanted off for her treat. This picture is for Emma's mama, yep she is wearing a bib ha ha



As you can see she polished hers off way before Mia so I think she is checking Mia's out !


She rode everything she was tall enough to ride and really wanted to bungee but you had to weigh 40 pounds so she couldn't do it. She did enjoy picking out little boats and won this Dalmation who then went on rides with her.






She loved the helicopter ride and kept saying HIGH as it lifted her up in the air




Riding the horse was another highlight of the night



It was hot and she was sweaty but loved going down the big slide with Daddy



Here is the promised video...this was taken when we first arrived : )

I'm so impressed that she rode the rides by herself. My Katie would have crawled right out. Shzz.

Such sweethearts! I am jealous that you live so close to some of your travelmates, Annslee's sisters. I wish ours were closer so we could go to the fair too.

Love all the pictures! But my favorite is the one where Annslee is eyeballing Mia and her icecream! Priceless!
