Picture Alert: there are a ton of pictures in this post and if you don't feel like looking at them, just scroll down to the last one....it is funny.
This past weekend, we ventured out with the kids and our nephew in tow to the Strawberry Festival. We had never been, but as you can see, it was a big fair and there was LOTS to do!
See their faces upon entering.....very excited. Of course I was more excited for the fair food (yum, funnel cake!), but I digress.
Here is a picture that sums it up....we sat to eat lunch, which I was so excited for and Eli was so not, as you can see. Boy, do I put my children through torture...the torture of eating first and doing the rides later. What a terrible mom I am to have them eat something for lunch and not go hungry.
Eli won this weird, koosh type ball and proceeded to hit Chad with it. Look at the glee on Eli's face on being able to inflict pain on his Daddy...priceless.
And where was Evie, you may be wondering....she was in her stroller, strolling over grass, dirt, thick ride cords, people's toes, you name it. But she slept the entire time, even though she was very late to eat. Goodness, is she a good baby!
Good Uncle Chad, making sure Nathan was secure in his seat of death! I would never go on that....even at a country fair.
This is Eli cheating in skee ball......give the kid a break, he is 2!!
Eli is fishing while proud Daddy looks on....yeah right...Daddy is actually wondering which 15 year old kid to give his life savings to in order for Eli to participate in a 20 second game which will most likely gain him no useless throw away toy.
Eli loves dunk tanks. The Ellen show had a dunk tank and she would dunk people for charity. Eli caught a glimpse of this and was hooked. I would tape the show and show him the dunk tank part. He even pretends to get dunked or pretends he is the dunker and we are the dunked! So when he spied this dunk tank, oh the excitement. Even today when I uploaded these pictures, he wanted to stare at this one.....can someone say obsession??!?!
This picture is absolutely priceless!!! This slide was apparently way fast...so fast that it took Eli, a slide veteran, by surprise. The look on his face is sheer terror and I feel like a bad mom laughing at it.....but, it is funny. :)
