FAIR and SURPRISES!

This past weekend we took the kids to the fair for the first time. Matt's brother, Chris and his girlfriend Jody, who were in town for my surprise party (more on that later) and my mom also went with us. The twins obviously are a little young for most rides but we took them on the merry-go-round and a truck ride. I went with Reagan on the merry-go-round and lets just say she was less impressed. I guess I always remember merry-go-rounds being slow but this one was fast, even I got dizzy. I can see why she didn't like it. I don't think Quinn was too happy about it either. I asked the attendant to cut the ride short. The both enjoyed the truck ride a lot better.

The animals were a big hit with Reagan. She would get so excited when she touched them. It was too cute. Quinn didn't really know what to think but quickly warmed up to them.

Of course we had to let the kids pick duckies for prizes! It is a little ridiculous what it costs but they loved the water!

The twins also enjoyed their first taste of fair food. Cheese curds, french fries, corn dogs, ice cream....mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. All in all we had a great time. I can't wait to do it again next year. I bet the twins will have a blast.

This past Friday, July 9th, Matt threw me a surprise birthday party. He picked 29 instead of 30 because he claims I am too nosey and would have found out at 30. He's probably right : ) Thank you to every one who came and celebrated with me. I had a great time!! I couldn't have asked for a better night. I want to especially thank Matt for all the hard work he put into the party. I've been told that he did very detailed planning. Thanks so much honey! I love you!
