Fun at the Fair!

Today we took the kiddos to the fair. Jim and I have always loved going to the fair and taking our kiddos is the most fun! There just isn't much better than seeing the excitement in a kiddos eye and boy was Landon excited! When we got there we bought our tickets for the rides and then ventured out for lunch. Mommy was most excited about a corn dog and daddy was most excited about nachos! Landon was not super patient during lunch and kept asking us if we were full yet! Ha! When we finished with lunch we headed over to ride a few kiddie rides and along the way Landon was very intrigued by the games...and even though they are a gigantic waste of money we let him play a few. His first game was the ping pong ball fish bowl toss! For $2 you got 10 balls. He blew through the first 10 and no fish was won. A little later on he played a game where he could catch toy fish and for $5 he was guaranteed to win! He chose an inflatable sword and there are surely a few fair goers that wish he would have chosen something else since he hit several people with it while swinging it around through the crowd. After riding a few rides we let him play the ping pong ball fish bowl toss again and this time we let MK in on the action. And she won! It was the craziest thing ever and Landon kept saying "I can't believe my baby won a fish!!" He was so excited! MK didn't really understand what she had done. Ha! After watching the tiger show (and eating a funnel cake) we headed to the petting zoo. MK had been talking about feeding the animals all day! She liked them but wasn't too excited about actually letting them eat from her hand. Landon loved that part!! On our way out we stopped to pick up our new pet fish...and Landon named him Luigi. We bought a covered tank and I'm sure the resident cat wishes we had picked one without a lid so she might enjoy a late night snack!
We had a great time and look forward to taking the kids to the fair each year as they get older.
