The Fair

We decided to take the girls to their first fair experience this weekend. The Gwinnett County Fair is in town and I hadn't been in YEARS! I really didn't know what to expect other then rides and fair food. I didn't realize how much Grace and Olivia could do and would want to do. And I didn't realize how much money it cost to buy tickets.
I had told Grace the day before that we were planning to go. That was a mistake...she asked about going every hour for that full 24 hours (she even had a hard time sleeping bc of her excitement). The first thing she wanted to do when she got there was ride the farris wheel. So we headed for the first ride. Chad took Olivia with him but we both thought she wouldn't do it. She did and she LOVED it, they both loved it. Chad said halfway through the ride Olivia was sitting on her knees so that she could see out.


Harper was a trooper. She slept the first two hours we were there. I guess she liked the heat, bumpy ride and all the noises.
Olivia started running when she saw the merry go round. So this was our second ride.

If Grace was tall enough I think she would of ridden everything!
The girls loved all the little kid rides.

Even though it is middle of September and should be 83 degrees, it isn't! It was 94 degrees the afternoon we went to the fair. She all enjoyed walking through the mister.

Grace's first baby roller coaster ride. She told us it was her favorite ride.

Yes...you can find time out spots even at the fair.
Believe it or not, the girls were in love with watching the cattle.



So much to see and do.
The girls were in aweeeee.....

of the ride that went upside down.
Harper enjoying the sites.

The girls played one game and both won a prize.

You can't go to the fair without getting funnel cake.
