The Fair

We ventured out to the Fair last Wednesday night.  Tucker remembered the Fair last year, and has pretty much asked to go back at least once a week since last October.  So when I heard the fair was in town I figured we better go back.  Honestly, his favorite part is always the farm animals.  

We loved this "puffy white" chicken
But the goats were Tucker's absolute favorite animal.  They were pretty cute.
After the animals we walked over to the rides.  Tucker is rather, shall we say, apprehensive, about heights, fast things, basically anything that he doesn't have control of.  So needless to say, when I had to take him off the kiddy whale ride because he was kicking and screaming after I had just spent $35...I was a little ticked.  Thank the good Lord above, we found our boy cousins.  So that took away some of the fear, because most anything they will do, he will at least try.  You know, to be "cool."

They look so sweet, don't they?!
So, he rode the "Santa ride" with Brett and Britton, which he loved and is still talking about.  It was actually the Himalaya, which was kind of a mini roller coaster that went pretty quick.  And then all the boys rode the kiddy boats and the spinning around things.  Which he got REALLY dizzy on and mad because the big boys wouldn't stop spinning.  I just knew someone was going to puke.  At which point the fun would be OVER.


After the spinning ride, Cameron went down the big slide with him and then they rode one more fast ride that Tucker was not a fan of.  Neither was I by the way... I couldn't wait for it to be over because I just knew a screw was gonna come loose and they were just gonna go flying through the air.  Stressed. Me. Out.

So, hate to say it, but kind of glad we have another year before the Fair comes back to town!  I love seeing my child have so much fun, but the germs and the weirdos are just a little overwhelming for me.  I'm so getting old.
