Happy Friday!
On Thursday this week we made our annual visit to the Orange County
Fair. I must say going with a very excited three year old made this
year's visit the most fun yet ! Life is so different when you
experience it through a child's eye ... it's pretty cool! We definitely
didn't get to see as much of the fair as previous years because well
with a three year old getting places takes a little longer especially
when tired little legs refuse to surrender and sit in the stroller even
for just a little bit. Isabel was all about the rides this year and
from the moment she spotted the little gold fish (I don't know whether
she saw the game or saw people carrying them around) but she was pretty
much on repeat for the entire time that 'she really wanted a pet fish'.
"How about an icecream isabel?" "OK but can we get a fish after
pleeeease'. She was relentless.
We even got her a dream light
(at the hall of products) .. something she requests every single time
she sees the ad on TV. This was purchased in hopes she would forget
about the fish. It didn't work! So on our way out Jason decides he has
to try to win her a fish. So the three of us throw the little balls ..
at this point I'm crossing my fingers one of those balls lands in a
bowl so that she gets her fish! Well no go! But the man working the
stand was very kind and gave her a fish anyways.
Dear man working at the fish game stand:
"Thank you for not disappointing a little girl and giving her a fish that she wanted so very very bad!
Love: A very appreciate mummy :)
'Hush' the fish survived a bumpy ride home with some of his water spilling out but Isabel is a happy girl. And
our visit to the fair was an all round success ... well kind of ... I
didn't manage to eat anything sweet and yummy :( no chocolate covered
strawberries .......
Hope everyone has a happy weekend full of smiles!
I'm sure I'll get my share of sweet goodies this weekend so maybe it was good I skipped them at the fair ;)
