Fair Fun.

When Sean went to Phoenix for a whole week I could not wait for him to come back. I'm telling you, I have no idea how long distance couples do it.

Any who, during the first week he was gone, I saw that a town not too far from where we live was having a fair so when I spoke to Sean one evening I asked him if he would like to go. He said yes which of course excited me because if you know me at all you know I love fairs. We just didn’t have fairs in the city and if we did we did not go. All the fun I was missing out on as a child.

(Yes, feel sad for me)

Actually I think I went to a fair once before I met Sean. My dad had that “take your daughters to work day” and they held a fair for us. But that was the only fair I went to and I was very young. Actually the only thing I can really remember is that it was the day I fell in love with cotton candy.

All his friends from his hometown make fun of me since I get so excited to go to their small town fair. I didn’t really know the difference. It was a fun fair to me!

Well now I know. This fair was HUGE! I mean, so much to do and see. We couldn’t even see everything it was so big. Sean loved it and said that it was such a great idea for us to spend our Friday night. I actually had to tell him that I was ready to leave because he wanted to see everything. That was a first.

This fair had amazing looking food and I wished I could have tried everything. But after a big plate of bacon cheese fries and a bag of cotton candy, I could not fill anything else in. I was bummed because I wanted my funnel cake and something fried. You know, fried oreos or twinkies. Granted I’ve never had those in my life but I wanted to try them just to say I did. Next year. There’s always next year. Or maybe another fair before the summer ends. I think that sounds better :).

  6. I love the fair. And I admit it. It's mainly for the food. This reminds me that we didn't go this year and I was kinda sad about it. But next year it's on. Yeah-you got your hubby back. Mine is still gone.

  9. First of all, you are the CUTEST fair-goer ever! Look at that adorable outfit.
    Second, I am SO sorry you didn't get to attend a fair every year growing up - that's the Iowa girl in me talking.
    Third, that picture of the Ferris wheel with the sunset is AWESOME!

I haven't been to a fair in years either and I have no excuse, there are plenty of them within an hour drive time around this time of year. I am glad you and Sean had a ton of fun!

  28. How have you never been to the fair is beyond me. But like they said, it's never too late. You need to make up for it.
