Fair 2009





















Tonight, we braved the cold and went to the fair. Liddy came with us. We started with the rides. Jane Gray said her favorite this year was the one that went up and down (one with Liddy and Charlie on each side of her); Charlie's favorite was the flying one (one with Daddy's legs hanging off). Meg's rode the Bumblebees and the ferris wheel. She loved it! When she wasn't riding the rides, Meg enjoyed watching the others; she would clap and say "yay!" After the rides, we went to the petting zoo. The big kids loved petting all of the animals. Meg liked to wave to them and "baa" at the sheep. After the zoo, we headed to Circus Maximus. We sat right underneath the highwire act - it was amazing! The performers were formerly with the Ringling Brothers Circus, so they were really good. By the time the circus was over, it had gotten very cold, so we grabbed some free biscuits, ran through the zookeepers' tent (where the kids got to hold a baby alligator) and headed to Chick-fil-a for a warm dinner.
