2nd trip to the Fair

The last day of the NC State Fair and we have over 2 books of tickets left so we headed back around 1600. We wanted to watch the Fireworks from Chris' house and didn't want to fight traffic later so we decided to go later in the day. I do try and try with Chris, but he never seems to get the message. 1st stop is ALWAYS the Mini-Doughnut lady...I am so in love with her! Well, her mini-doughnuts! They are sooooo good! Hot and covered in sugar and cinnamon..yum yum. Again, maybe Pam will remember that and again, pack up and move South!
We headed to the big Ferris Wheel and I think thats the only ride that Allison rode. Lauren pretty much used the rest of the tickets!
Lauren loves this ride! We were buckled in waiting on it to lift us up. It gets pretty high and you can see everything around you.
Pretty cool huh? My shoes are on the right if you had any question. It goes around pretty fast so you can't really get a crisp picture!


The girls did find hats that they liked. We can't seem to figure out what Allison's hat is....we have guesses of Pirana, alligator.....we just can't figure it out.
But Lauren didn't hesitate on the Sponge Bob hat....its totally HER!
Pretty colors......all the bright lights....could probably make someone have a seizure!
We did have fun, riding rides, eating and not being so crowded that we can't breathe. That was surprising since it was the last day of the Fair.
Even though its not crisp and clear...Lauren is laughing with me! Yeah...I did something right!
I did get this picture, I think which was from the Ferris Wheel...not sure, but I think so!
Total family portrait! I think Emilee would be proud!
Not sure how I missed this food stop! This of course was after Mark, Tres and Evan all placed orders for sausage dogs, funnel cakes, caramel apples, etc. And yes, I actually delivered them to work after the Fireworks. Can someone put that in my PMG?
We actually cut back through kiddie land and saw this! Too funny! Its called the Hamster Walk. Huge bubbles they fill with air and stick a kid in there....they can then crawl around and never sink! That would be a fun 'team' activity.


We headed out to Chris' to watch the fireworks which are great from his backyard! Except that one tree....but I think hes working on that! I really do love him. Why can't he see that? Why can't things go back to the happiness it was? I keep hoping. Maybe one day!
