Last Spring...April 2015

Last spring was a very busy time for our family.  I decided to take a trip backwards on this blog to add some pictures of times that made us smile. 

At the end of April, we decided to go to the local County Fair.  It had been raining all day and it was a Wednesday night, which in the South means many folks would be attending church. 

 
There were very few people there.  I think we saw maybe ten other kids! 

 
The first ride for Sassy was the swings.  It was all she talked about on the trip.  At first I didn't see the swings that we normally rode so we began with the "skyscraper" version.  That sucker was tall!

It was crazy high and so much fun.  This picture is from the much lower, much slower swings.  See that smile...still loving it.  See those other seats...empty!

Eric and I separated and he took Bit for a bunch of tot-sized rides...and snacks.

 

Here he is loaded down with everything "I" decided to bring that night, including coats for all of us and a diaper bag.  He has toys purchased at the fair and water bottles all shoved in his pockets, while taking pictures of the kids.  My Hero. <3

Sassy and I landed in the aviary and had tons of fun with those hungry little guys.

Bit wanted the trains first, so that is where she started with Eric.  We ended up seeing those again so she could show her sister.

The traditional Funnel Cake snake before leaving...that we could not finish.  I remember now why we only order that thing once/year.  Sooo sweet.

 

These are two pictures of the last ride that that Sassy and I grabbed on the way out the gates...as Eric carried Bit crying to the car.  She was so worn out.   

 

 Here is another of the two of them together.  Cuties!

 

Bit crashed as soon as Eric buckled her into her seat and didn't wake up until the next morning in her bed...asking when we could go to the Fair again.


Eric and I decided this is the definitely the way to go when planning a night at the local fair...wait for a rainy day.
