Fair

On Saturday we made our annual trip to the fair with the Lydas.  We've gone for several years together and always have a great time.  Last year we wore jackets and long pants . . . but the fair was a little early this year so we sweated it out in the heat on Saturday.  I forgot sunscreen so I got pretty burned.  Luckily the girls did not.  Here is all our fun!

Last year this was the only ride Abigail would try.  So this was the first ride she wanted to get on Saturday:

 This year she decided to give all the rides a try that didn't go up in the air:

 While Joe and Abigail were at the petting farm, Emily asked to ride a pony:

 I didn't think Abigail would want to but when she walked up and saw Emily on there she said she wanted to ride a pony too : )

 After lunch, Emily wanted to ride the roller coaster that she loved last year.  I kept asking Abigail in line if she was sure she wanted to ride it.  She watched it go around and said she wanted to ride it. . .  look at her face : ) 

 She made it around once and then on the 2nd time around she was crying.  Sweet Emily motioned to the attendant and asked her to stop the ride because her sister was scared.  So they stopped the ride so Joe could get her off and then everyone finished:

 Then Emily decided she wanted to try some big rides.  We were going to ride the ferris wheel but when we got closer to it she changed her mind.  But we did ride these two rides.  I was so proud of her!

 After this ride I told her my head couldn't take any more spinning rides : )

 So the girls finished up their tickets riding a few more that were Abigail's speed:
