The Coastal Carolina Fair

Henry took his first of many trips (i'm sure) to the FAIR and, my ooohh my, did he take it ALLL in! He loved the lights, the smells, the junkie food, and even those crazy carnies! He rode several of the kiddie rides, even though I swore I'd never let my child ride on one of those transportable hunks of junk. I mean, we passed about 10 of them last Sunday coming down I-26 en route from the State Fair. How easy is it for one of those bolts to come off? And do you think those "carnies" notice? Anyway, I digress.


He was fine and I even rode the dumbo ride with him...until I remembered that I can't ride the 'roundy rounds'. Almost lost my Fiske Fries! So the Daddy took over from there and they had a ball! I can ride the fastest, most treacherous of roller coasters, but don't get me near a Tilt-A-Whril! Ask my Dad. He's cleaned many a car floor mat from my, hmmm, up-chuck. (Thanks Dad!)
Giant Corn Dogs were a fav of Brad and Henry

Loved the Horsey

...and the Bee

....and a great time spent with Mimi

Until next year!

Henry, I am so glad you loved the Fair...The corn dog looked like it was a real hit. Just hung up from talking to your Mama and just cannot wait till Thanksgiving.
I love you.

I laughed at your comment about tilt a whirls and roller coasters. That is me exactly. In fact one of my most embarrassing moments was at the SC state fair in 10th grade with a cute boy and I was dumb enough to ride the tilt a whirl. I'll let your imagination take over from there! Glad Henry like it all!
