Spring is in the (f)air

Kate enjoyed her 2nd year at the Yuma County Fair. I, on the other hand, melted! This is April and the weather is supposed to be fabulous; it was 100 degrees the day my friend Becca and I decided to take Kate and Molly (Becca's daughter). Granted we also went at noon, but we have our girls on schedules so this is the time that worked for both of us. That's what I love about kids that young, they have no concept of weather conditions, they just want to play and have a good time. Kate had a BLAST, to say the least. As soon as she was put on the ride she had this serious look on her face, but once it started she was laughing, screaming (squealing) in delight and it was so freaking cute!




It definitely made it worth my dehydration and dripping in sweat to see that excitement and joy in her face (speaking of face, if you notice the scab on her nose ~ Kate had her first accident; she went flying off her pbk chair and into the end table, blood everywhere, it was awesome, but not really ~ poor Kate).

We went a second time in the evening, to avoid the heat, with Nana, Nanalu, Uncle Ish and cousin Nati.



Kate went on pretty much the same rides and she still had a blast. She was too small for one ride but I asked a parent if Kate could ride with their little girl; they said yes and this little girl was so sweet. She made sure to keep her arm around Kate and make sure she was safe on the ride. I was afraid Kate was going to rip off her glasses or pull her pigtails; Kate can be kinda mean that way. Luckily, she was so into the ride that the little girl was safe from Kate!



Kate also went down the BIG slide with Nana. She loved it so much that when it was over she tried to climb up and when told "no" she threw a MASSIVE fit! Poor thing we ruined and stopped her fun.



By that time it was time to go because we were all pooped and all the fair tickets were gone! Hopefully next year the weather is better, if not we will be going in the evening again.
