Last night we finally made it to our local fair. It hasn't rained all summer but of course this week it decided to pour its ass off. We originally decided to go on Tuesday but Monday night I think we had something like 6000 inches of rain and the field where they had it looked like a swamp. A swap that I didn't feel like walking around in flip flops and pushing a stroller in. So I had to break the news to Aiden that the fair wouldn't be happening but we had all week to go. You would of thought I told him his dog died. Even though we no longer have a dog but you get the point. Every day the entire week it flipping rained. Do you know what it's like to have a kid ask you every day about a fair and why can't we go. It's like getting pecked to death by a little chicken in the head. So Friday was nice and sunny all day, Aiden was excited. Talked about the fair from the time he woke up...until the time it started to rain and lightening like the world was coming to an end about 2 hours before we were suppose to go. And it rained all night. We got to the fair eventually the next day which ment I had to endure another day of asking what time is it, and was it almost time to go. The first ride we got on was the ferris wheel. Aiden, who has been on the ferris wheel tons of times decided that he is now afraid of heights and had a mini panic attack once we got to the top. I couldn't help myself but I almost peed myself from laughing so hard I think. You had to be there. I know you shouldn't laugh at your kids but hearing "Ohhhh my godddd gettt meee offf" by a giant almost 8 year old is a funny sight to see. Three hours later, some ruined white flip flops, bug bites and two tylenols we were done. Oh the Tylenol was due to this ride:
Aiden may be afraid of heights but he loves anything that goes fast, spins, or makes you stick to the walls.
