Carnival
Posted By pamelamyers on May 28, 2013
Sam is really into carnivals now. She loves all the lights and the sounds – oh, and let’s not forget all the stuffed animals she wins at the games! And just recently, she actually started liking the rides. Mark and I took her to a local one the other day and let her have some (expensive) fun.
Her first stop was the duck game. Not much of a game, but she loves it just because she gets to pick up a bunch of rubber duckies. She wound up winning this huge inflatable rubber duck. Oh boy. Where is that going to live in our house?
The merry go round is always a favorite. Whenever we see one, she has to ride. It is one of my favorites too.
She swore she wanted to ride the dragon, which was really pretty tame and meant for little kids, but she didn’t like it too much when she got on. You can see her sad little face in this picture.
Ok, so that was upsetting for her. On to some games. In this one, you had to shoot water at a target and be the first to make your target rise. She didn’t win, but had fun anyway.
Time for ice cream before going home. I think, by far, that was Sam’s favorite part of the carnival. You can see her gigantic duck now…
One last ride – the train! This was a slow ride that was right up her alley. It is hard to believe that by this time next year, she will be so different and probably willing to go on every fast spinning ride the carnival has. Let’s hope not – Mommy and Daddy aren’t fans of those….
