The fair


Yesterday afternoon we headed out to the fair, of course it was the hottest day of the month so far. So after we got there we went to go on some rides and it was just to hot to stand in the sun. So off to the buildings we went so Kara could collect her backpack full of free stuff from the CHP and other booths. After that we went and listened to some music on one of the stages and Kara got some good dance moves in. People were laughing and watching her, Jason joined her for one song too.
By then it was time to hit the Ferris wheel. Kara had been talking about wanting to ride the Ferris wheel. So she and Tim went up and around. I'm not sure if Tim was as big of a fan as she was. Then Kara spotted the goldfish game. So I gave her $1 and she got 5 balls to throw. The 5th one was the winner! So we now have "dory" to go with "nemo" from last fair's fish. (although Nemo is the replacement from the fish that died after we brought him home last year, but don't tell Kara)
Back to the kids area we went, where we meet up with Grandma and Papa, and the kids got to ride some more rides. Tim was taking Jason on a roller coaster so I took her to the fun house, the funny thing is she stands by the measuring thing for every ride and waits to see if she is big enough. So she goes in the fun house, and comes out, some of the kids she was just in there with were going back in so I said yes she could go too. She had to stand and measure up again, though. This went on like 8 or 9 times, each time she would measure up and wait to be told she could go in, until the last one she said, "I'm big enough" and just walked in. The lady working thought she was the funniest thing.
Then it was off to ride the motorcycles. At the end of the ride, one little boy yells, "I'm the winner". Kara yells "no she's the winner" and points to the girl in front of her. Then the boy yells something back, Kara gets off her motorcycle and proceeds to go over and tell him how he didn't win. So funny!
We topped off the whole day with fair food, yum!
