Fair Fun

We had a nice time at the fair last week. It was Matthew's first time there. He pretty much slept the whole time =).  Jimmy was in for a special treat, this year they had a little circus "show." There were elephants and camels, ponies and dogs that did tricks. Jimmy could have even touched an elephant, but he was a little unsure. So he just watched. They performed a few neat tricks including this one and one where they stood on their front legs (I wasn't quick enough with the camera for that trick). They even laid down together!

After the circus, Jimmy got to ride a pony. But wait you say, don't you guys have horses?? Well, yes, but they are a little big for Jimmy and he gets a bit worried around them. Not to mention they haven't been ridden in a while. We really need to get a little pony or small horse for Jimmy to be able to ride. He would have a ball! He really enjoyed riding the pony at the fair, he even waved at everyone and he kept patting the pony's neck.  It was so cute!

We didn't stay too long since we had Matthew and it got to be past Jimmy's bedtime real quick, but it was long enough to eat some greasy food, see some farm animals, have some fun and get some homemade ice cream on the way out. Maybe next year Matthew will get to ride a pony too!
