Off to the Fair


This weekend we went to the Marshfield Fair. It was crazy busy. I’m pretty sure that the fact that it was opening weekend and a beautiful one to boot weather-wise brought everyone out for a good time. This year was much better than last year. Last year Rebecca was only 6mos old so there was not much for her to do and also if I remember correctly it was hotter as well. This year she was able to go on a few rides and I didn’t realize that there were 2 more rides that she could have gone on, but she still had fun going on the carousel. She was mad that she couldn’t go on the car ride with Aiden which was the same exact car ride that she went on at the Southwick Zoo. Different places different rules.  I was going to take her on the train ride until she threw a fit about waiting in line so that was the end of that. She enjoyed playing her first carnival game though, picking up the ducks in the pool. Aiden’s favorite ride was the giant slide that you sit on the potato sacks. I’ll admit that as a child that was one of my favorite rides and I could do that one over and over again, but somehow now that I’m older I wasn’t so sure about the ride once we got to the top. However, if it wasn’t a long line I would have gone down it again with him if we could. Both kids had a lot of fun, but alas we had to call it a night. Rebecca was starting to get cranky since it was getting late and of course Aiden was bouncing off the walls from a sugar rush from ice cream we bought on the way out.

Marshfield Fair

This weekend we went to the Marshfield Fair. Its been a long time since I have been to this particular fair and the last time that I went I didn't have that great of a time. Let me just say it involved a "friend" that decided she wanted to hang out all night at one particular booth so she could flirt with a guy that was butt ugly and I didn't really have any money to do anything. Anyway. We met up with a friend of ours and his little boy, Jon. They love playing with each other. Best buds- locally that is. (Rhi don't get your panties in a bunch.) As soon as we told Aiden that we were going to the fair he asked if there were rides there. He loves going on rides. So here are some of the photos from the day and I can;t wait for the Topsfield Fair in October because that is when you start having all the fall harvest stuff. And its bigger.
