The Carnival Came to Town!

We were on a play date last week and the kids were mesmerized by the carnival they could see over by Dulles Town Center Mall...so that night we loaded the kids up and headed over.

Chase was my little wild-man, holding his arms up in the air like he was on a roller-coaster (Ok, I taught him that!) and Addy was a MESS! She hated the little intro, "even babies like this ride" kind of ride...the choo choo train. After that, we went to more familiar territory...the merry-go-round. After the horror of the train massacre, she took a while to warm back up on the ponies:
Here is proof that we weren't torturing her (yet!)...see, she is smiling doing that bucking-bronco rodeo thing on her pink princess pony...please keep this in mind while looking at the next sequence of events ;o)

After the pony warm-up, we headed over to the little dirt-bike/jeep ride...Addy was exited b/c she got the glittery pink one...Chase was super-psyched as always

"Oh Crap, what have I done!?!?" "Moooom..."

Nooo!!!

She rode like this the rest of the time...we were laughing...I felt really bad (sort of!) Maybe if we would have put Chase in front of her, she would have been ok? They could have even ridden together on the same little buggy...way to go, Mom!

After that Chase and I left her with Bruce and headed off for the "cool rides" with Chase...we were too busy being bad-asses to take any more pictures!

She is totally saying "FML" and "They're going to get theirs!" We can see if she wants another crack at the carnival in NC!
