Time for the fair again, which means time for rides. All three boys are now big enough to ride and it is so fun to watch them laugh and giggle on them. First year for Brock and we'll see how he does, my prediction was that he wouldn't want to come off of them, but there were a few that he really didn't like and was actually frightened of . But, for the most part, they all did very well and everytime we drive by the big red barn now, they are looking for the fair to be there. I keep telling them that they will have to wait for next year, even though they don't understand what that means yet.

The Tilt-A-Whirl

Love, love, love this picture. And they loved, loved, loved this ride. So cute!

Funny house

Dirk had so much fun going through this one. First he went by himself and made it through the maze really fast...then he went through with Daddy. Mack went through with Daddy and apparently had a hard time because he kept walking into the glass because he couldn't tell that he couldn't get through. Chad came out laughing pretty hard.

Race cars

Dirk and Brock riding together.

Mack laughed so hard every time he came around the corner. It was so much fun to watch. This one went straight and then flung them around the corner really fast.

Carousel

Yee ha...ride 'em cowboys.

Oh happy day!

Choo choo train

Brock went on this all by himself while Dirk and Mack went on the carausel (spelling?).

Tea Cups

Brock was going to ride on this one, but started crying because I think he was still scared after the roller coaster. Dirk figured out right away how to get the tea cup spinning and boy were they going.

Motorcycles

Riding together as their own little gang. They love this one...riding just like Daddy.

Waiting in line for the motorcycle ride.

Riding his own "vroom vroom".

The swing ride.

Waiting for the ride to start.

This swing ride went on forever and I don't blame Dirk for wanting to get off. After all, how many times can one really go around in circles without getting sick. After a while, he just went into this daze until...finally it stopped.

Ferris Wheel

Dirk wouldn't go on the Ferris Wheel with me because he said it was too high. But Mack wasn't afraid, he's our little dare-devil. Up, up and away he and Daddy go.

Bumper Cars

Dirk loves bumper cars.

Mack wasn't very happy because he was too little to reach he steering wheel. Not having a nap today was probably another reason for his crabbiness.

It was Daddy's idea to bury Dirk in the corn. He said it was ok, just not his head.

Mack giggled the whole time, but couldn't stay down long enough to get buried.

Then it was Brock's turn. He laid down in the corn and said, "me". Meaning it was his turn.

Doing a good job not touching the trains.

Mack's first day of 3P. He is so excited to be going to school just like Dirk.

Excited to be at school.

Looking for his locker.

Trying to open his locker. He doesn't even have to share with anyone.

Dirk's first day of 4K. He's so handsome.

Looking for his hook.

Found his hook for his backpack.
