Good Friends + The Fair = Good Times

We went to the Williamson County Fair on Saturday and Hannah had a blast. We met our friends Steve, Sandra and Jenna and it was so fun. Hannah and Jenna had such a good time riding ALL the rides and the adults even got to have a little fun too. Hannah and Jenna even rode the big Pirate Ship with me, David and Sandra. Hannah looked scared during the ride, but when it was over she said she liked it and was only a little bit scared. It was a perfect night to go. It was not crowded at all and it wasn't even that hot. There was a nice breeze. We had a blast.

I can't even tell you what a big deal it is that Hannah is even standing close to Bob and Larry (if you know our Santa story - you understand). When we saw them Jenna ran right over and then Hannah followed her. I think it took her a minute to realize she was actually standing this close to one of these things. She did let me get her picture if David would come and stand with her.


This was a little roller coaster and Jenna and Hannah loved it. Jenna had her hands up the first minute they got on. They rode it again at the end of the night and by then Hannah had her hands up too.



Now, David almost had a heart attack when Hannah wanted to ride this. They laid down on their stomach in a cage like thing. Needless to say they both LOVED it!!



AHH yes. No fair would be complete without a giant rainbow snow cone.



And now...it's time for a little fun for the adults. Sandra and I rode this thing and it was so fun. We did make a comment how old we felt when we sat down. We were surrounded by teenagers.

You beat me to the punch...I have it on my "to do" list to upload my photos from last night and blog. It was a TON of fun (besides Steve being woozy) and I think we should make it a standing annual event!

We are so glad she had such a good time. If she is like Rach, she will love all the rides and the scarier they are the better!! Remember when I wouldn't let you ride the roller coaster at Opryland??
Love,

Sandra - I am STILL waiting for your blog...

Mom - Of course I remember not being able to ride the roller coaster at Opryland and not being able to ride go carts, etc. I lived though and boy was it an exciting day when I finally got too.

Ash - You're not dreaming. We did go with you to the Wilson County Fair one year. I don't think we had kids yet. Remember we sat and watched that hypnotist. Very fun!

Ashley said...

Yeah--I remember that...and if we SAT and WATCHED anything, we definitely didn't have kids yet!!!

I want to know when it was actually "not too hot" to go to the fair. We didn't even tell Kelsey about it because we didn't want to fight the heat!
