Fair Time

 

For the third year in a row, we went to the fair on Friday night with the Ryles.  This is a tradition I'd like to keep alive -- the kids love it so much and it's a blast watching them!

They're getting older and braver -- they're riding with no adults now.  This was their first time on the Mean Machine, and the Jenkins boys sure look nervous. 

The boys and I rode the Mean Machine later, and Mike snapped this incredible photo on his iPhone. Seriously, how does he do this?  And seriously, when are we going to get a goo picture of Luke on a ride-group-photo?  We had a few good ones from Disney but we had just the top of Luke's head.  Now it's just his shoes.  I love it...but it would be nice to have his cute face in this!

We went from Big Scary Rides to Kiddies Rides and back again, all night.  Ady's smile cracks me up in this picture, and so does Luke's serious face. Come on, Luke, it's the Dragon Wagon!

Again with Glee from Ady and Worry from Luke.  Love it. 

No carnival is complete without overpriced, trashy stuffed animals. The boys are fishing here.  

And later, they tried their hands at the cork guns.  

This is from the Ferris wheel - I love this sweet smile, fake or not. 

The carousel is always a hit, no matter what the age.
