Fun at the Fair!

On a day like today, we remembered a lot of things and one of them is that you should never take any day for granted. So we ceased the day and went out as a family and went to the fair. We go to the Sandwich Fair every year and it is so much fun! They have so much there. For one, they have tractors that you can sit on.

They have animals that you can pet like these cute baby ducks. We had fun watching all the baby chicks.
They have buildings of cows, sheep, pigs, goats, and.....poultry! We had fun in ther and it was noisy too. Evie and Presley were very impressed. Then Gracie wanted to sit on the big tire. Then it was time for rides. All my kiddies drove the pretty purple car. Well, the girls did. Presley just sat there, enjoying the ride. Then eveyrone rode the merry-go-round. Then Gracie wanted to watch this bear show. I'm pretty sure that if you remember the old Showbiz Pizza (what Chuck. E. Cheese was before it was named that). These are the characters from their little show there. Billy Bob is the big bear. The big gorilla was there too. I don't remember his name. And the girl bear. She was dressed as a cheerleader or something like that back in the day but now she is hawaiian. Brought back soem memories. Then my big girl Gracie wanted to try her very first roller coaster ride! I went with her. For a little dragon roller coaster, it goes pretty fast.
We had a lot of fun! After some rides, it was time to eat lunch. Evie had fun eating Auntie Amy's hot dog. That girl always wants to eat what Auntie has. Presley was happy with his chicken nuggets and potato chips. And lucky for Grace, they had peanut butter and jelly sandwiches! We went on a train ride after that. We all squeezed into the same car. Then we went and saw more animals. We saw a horse. And then someone decided that she needed a pony ride! Presley watched but he would not go on one. It was a great day and I am glad we went. It was shortly after this that everyone fell asleep and we headed home. It's days like these that I love. Spending time with the people you love most and that was very important especially on today 9/11.
