Tumbling at the Fair

The one other thing we really look forward to each fall, in addition to Halloween is the NC State Fair. We went prepared with ride ticket bracelets – unlimited rides! Now if only that also meant cut to the front of the lines (which it doesn’t). It seemed the only thing working against us was…
Jen took one for the team since no one else wanted to ride the “spinny” ride with Cailee.
This weekend there was a mini state fair at the NC State Fairground, so after Cailee’s final soccer game of the season we all headed to Raleigh. The kids were pretty excited to see all the rides and I was thrilled that there were so many that Cailee AND Connor could ride. Connor has the…
Our State Fair got some bad press this year, but that didn’t stop us from having a great time. Luckily we went a few days before the Vortex malfunction made national news, in fact, JJ and I both commented when we went past the ride that that was not one we would ever consider riding…

We’ll probably regret that we pushed for this day later on – but we sure are having fun now that she is saying some words we recognize. Even if she doesn’t know exactly what she is saying or why she is saying it – she is doing a lot of copying these days. Let’s see…
It was almost an easier decision to take Cailee to the fair last year at 6 weeks then this year at 13 months. At six weeks she slept soundly in the baby bjorn, straight through the tractor pulls and turkey shoot, but this year, we knew she would be awake and wanting to take it…
