The Fair :: Captured

We made a quick trip to the County Fair Saturday. We went late afternoon before it got busy

 and made sure we got there while the $1 rides were still going on.

The kids had fun because how could you not with rides and games and shaved ice?
And the nice thing about a small County Fair is that it does not involve miles and 

miles of walking (or whining) and you don't have to spend half the day there if you don't want to. 

Don't think I am being too harsh, because this is in fact where I live, but after we left the

 County Fair Saturday I realized that if Wyatt wasn't missing a couple of front teeth we may have just been the only family there with all of their teeth. Man, so close to being "The Family That"...
 yet so far away. Oh well, maybe next year.

I love these pictures of Wyatt with his arm around his sister trying to reassure her before they
 got on the elephant ride. She was not scared, he was, a little.
He does like heights too much, as far as rides go anyway, she does.
I asked him to please go on it with her and he agreed but admitted later that he was a little bit nervous and he did not like the way she was sitting so close to the door.
Ha, he sounds a little too much like me.

Wyatt loved the Speedway cars and although he really, really wanted to go in the

 House Of Mirrors he had a little trouble finding his way out. But he did, eventually.

Wow, the iphone can sure make you lazy as far as getting your real camera out, huh?
You know, the iphone is Eric's not mine, which is probably a good thing because it is just so easy.
 I really might start lugging my big-girl camera around a little less.
Obviously I  used both at The Fair though.
I think I need to write Apple a letter about giving me an iphone complete with a whole bunch of camera/video apps to try out and report on here. Don't ya think? I see it as a total win-win situation. ; )
{Maybe I should get started on that letter tonight....}

So there ya have it, our little hour and a half trip to The Fair.
That was extreme picture overload, I know, sorry about that. I think the Fair/Carnival might be one of the BEST places to go with your camera though. So much to capture.
I was super tempted to go back by myself that night when it was dark and walk around for a
 little while taking pictures by myself but I didn't, too lazy.
Well, Happy Wednesday everyone.
It's another rainy day here so we are headed to the library soon, gotta get my
 money's worth this Summer!
