We discovered the fair a few years ago, and now it has become an annual tradition. This year we happen to go on opening night. Since we home school I try to choose a school night to go to the fair hoping that it will be a lighter crowd. This year it happened to be on fall break, but the girls were still able to hop on most every ride without having to wait. I was sure to explain to them that this would more than likely NOT be the case when we go to Disney in a couple of months.
This was Brooke's first year to really have a good time. We measured her at home and she was exactly 36" with her tennis shoes on. The majority of the rides require the kids to be 36", so we were glad she would be tall enough. Despite the fact that the person who measured out the heights onto the measuring stick was a good 1" off on their markings, most ride operators let her on. The few that stopped her willingly let her on when we told them she had been riding those rides all night. She had an absolute blast.
Of course there was a stop at the petting zoo.
I wouldn't be surprised if this child works with animals when she grows up or buys a farm. She could have stayed here all afternoon.
The fair was the beginning of our crazy fun weekend. We did stay out a little too late considering the next day was a field trip day to the zoo with Kayla's class.
