We went to the Minnesota Fair on opening day this past Thursday. I had to work that morning so we didn't get to the fair until around 5:30 or 6p.m. Normally we make a day of it, but between our work schedules and this darn RNC schedule Kevin has it was literally the only time we could make it there. We didn't see nearly enough but we did enjoy the food and Charlotte and I went on 2 rides together. Charlotte had a blast! We went on the corn slide 1st. I was more nervous than she was. It is really high up there at the top of the slide. When we went down though Charlotte thought it was the best thing she had ever experienced. She was laughing and happily screaming the whole way down. It was great. Then, at the end of the night we went on the Merry Go Round and Charlotte rode on the Horse that goes up and down. Her reaction was priceless. Kevin was watching us and, without prompting, every time we passed Kevin she would smile a huge smile and wave at him and say "Hi Dad!" In my mind it looked as if she was in a commercial for Valley Fair or something. I actually thought the Merry Go Round was too fast but Charlotte seemed to enjoy it just fine. She wanted to go again, but maybe we'll do that next week. Even though Kevin won't be able to come, I think Charlotte and I are going to go to the fair together one morning really early and get breakfast and look at the fun nerdy stuff.
This morning after Charlotte woke up she was playing in her room and in true Charlotte fashion her beautifully clean room became messy in about 10 seconds. She is again on the dressing yourself kick. So, the pictures are of course of Charlotte's morning adventure. She reminds me of myself. when it comes to trying on clothes, because I am often not satisfied, and can go from a wonderfully clean room to a clothing disaster in just a few minutes. (I stuck another fun picture of her in there too from earlier this week. She seems to have lots of fun in the high chair of hers).
I hope you all have enjoyed your weekend and the crisp clean weather. Yeah for Fall.....finally!
