St. Lucie Fair

Funnel cakes, Cotton candy, Rides, Animals...this is what I think about when I hear the fair is in town. We made our way out the the St. Lucie Fair with Pop & Ms. Tara and had a great time. We started at the petting zoo, there were a lot of animals to feed & pet, the billy goats were our favorite.

We made our way to a really huge inflatable slide that both the boys rode with Pop and then the carousel. I was not sure how Will was going to feel about the rides but he really surprised me and was willing to try some new things. He had been talking about wanting to go ride a roller coaster so I found a "Will sized" one that consisted of a short round track with a few bumps along the way and the cars looked like an alligator. I thought for sure he would back out when he saw it but he still wanted to ride. He climbed into a seat next to a little girl that looked to be about 8 years old. When the alligator took of abruptly I could see in Will's eyes that he was not happy, but thankfully that sweet little girls motherly instincts kicked in and she put her arm around him and told him it was going to be ok, and he was but after the ride was over he didn't want to go again. I was proud of him for trying. After that we stuck with the bounce house & the trucks that go around in circles very slowly. It was a fun night.
