Today we went to the Ventura County Fair. Mom has taken me and the kid(s) every year since Natalie was a baby. This year was crazy (late buses, unusually fussy baby, 2 year old tantrums) but a memorable time nonetheless.
When I first told Natalie we were going to the Fair and that there would be animals, she started jabbering about giraffes and elephants. Hmm… not quite. But then I told her that there would be ponies and she was SO EXCITED! She absolutely loved her pony ride. She looked so comfortable up there… I was proud (I rode horses for many years).
(Thanks to my sister Laura for the great pictures!)
Ben was VERY interested in tasting my caramel apple (gotta love Fair food!). Thanks mom and Laura… it was a fun day!
Funny… yesterday on the news there was a story about the fair, and now we see great pictures of you and yours at the fair. Nice!
love those babies! nata looks like a natural on that pony:)
Fair food is the best! I love the black and white photo!
Riding suits Nata! She looks great up there and so happy.
Looks like you guys had a great day! Love those pictures! Love Ben’s wide eyes at the caramel apple! Very cute. 🙂
Natalie is brave to ride the horse at 2…So cute! You guys look so peaceful in the pics 🙂 I have the hardest time deciding which fair food I’m going to eat…so many choices!
I was CERTAIN she was going to be scared, but she couldn’t wait!!
