We made it!!

We made it to the fair. It took a try or two, but we made it. We met our friends Andrea, Nathan and Jackson at Chik-fil-a on Thursday after everyone was finished with school/work. We quickly ate and then headed off to the North Georgia Fair. It rained off and on all day Thursday which made it a little less crowded. Yea, for us! Anyway, I thought only rednecks went to the fair, but now I have decided that only rich people can afford the fair. It costs a small fortune for 2 children and 2 adults to attend the fair, and we actually had free tickets into the fair. So, basically we spent $60 for the kids to ride rides. It was $6-8 per ride for both kids to ride. Ridiculous! We had fun though! Check out these pics. We started out on the caterpillar roller coaster, Mina loved it, but Aidan wasn't so sure. He hung in there, but he cried a little bit toward the end of the ride.

Then we moved on to the animals and you know the kids and I loved that, we were petting everything that we could get our hands on. The kids are just like me, they love animals. So, we paid $7 for them to sit on Buttercup. Buttercup is a 2400 lb Bull. She is BIG! The kids loved her!

Our 2nd ride of the night was the fish ride? It looked more like a helicopter, but had the face of a fish. Very interesting! They liked it okay, but it wasn't their favorite. I think they like all 3 riding together. That is Jackson in the middle. Isn't he cute. He's bigger than Aidan and he is a year younger than A.

Next, we headed to the Dragon ride. That was the fave of the night. The kids actually control whether their little dragon goes up or down. And just like that love for animals, they also are control freaks like me. Yikes!! Anyway, they loved that ride.

Well, that was pretty much it! . We really did have a great time!!
