Thursday was a nice day. We spent most of it at the Fair. The kids had a lot of fun riding the rides and Jeff and I just hung out and let them do that. Nothing else really interested me. I had wanted to see the draft horse demo, but we missed it. We went looking for the scrap booking display, but didn’t see it. The kids rode a lot of rides! Jonathan got me to go on one with him. It was one I have looked at every year and been too chicken to try. 🙂 We didn’t do it at night, but here is a picture of the ride.
The other ride I went on was the old merry-go-round. I always like to ride that with the kids. 🙂 Merry-g0-rounds are so fun and nostalgic.
All in all, it was a good day. I won’t tell you about the many babies I saw, or the realization that struck me about halfway through the day (that had our little girl lived, she would have been two months old and with us), or how hard it was to understand why girls so young were there & either pregnant or toting around a newborn. Sometimes it is hard to push away the thoughts.
It was so nice to see the boys having so much fun and enjoying themselves. We were all tired when we got home. We ate pizza and watched a couple “Mork & Mindy” episodes (I, of course, fell asleep in my chair!!).
Fair Day was a good day!!
