Keola and I were just talking about how we have not gone to a carnival in ages. Then in the last 5 months or so, since moving to Calvert County, we have now gone to 2, AND there's another one coming up at the end of September!!

Today we took Lillie to the Prince George's County Fair. We had a lot of fun. The carnival/fair itself was, at times a bit scary "looking", but Lillie had so much fun, and that's what matters.

Lillie's first choice was the carousel.

Next ride, the balloons
This was NOT the favorite of the day!! The hot air balloon ride started going around, then up and down a bit. THEN, the balloon "basket" started spinning around a little. Lillie was NOT very thrilled about that. By the middle of the ride, I saw her holding hands with Keola. It's a good thing he hopped on with her!!

Can you see a little trepidation on her face?!?

Once Lillie got off the balloons, she wanted something calm and steady. So, it was on to the train ride.

Daddy was such a good sport riding everything with his baby!

After surveying the rest of the rides, Lillie wanted to take a little rest. We got some cotton candy and played a game. Lillie threw darts at balloons and actually won herself a penguin. That's my girl!!

After we walked around a bit, Daddy decided to ask Lillie about THIS ride! I thought I took more pictures, but I guess I just took video, which we can't upload yet. This was a little bigger rollercoaster than the normal kiddie ride. There was actually a drop/dip, and a section where the cars were tilted a little on it's side. I wish I had a wide view picture. Anyway, Lillie survived and the only thing she didn't like was the cars tilting. Brave girl!

It was time to visit the farm animals. First stop, the neighborhood Llama.

Oooh, so soft sheep!

Sooo cute bunnies!

Moooo goes the calf

On the way back to the rides, we came across this odd looking man! Lillie was too scared to shake his hand, so Daddy had to go with her. Too bad Daddy became the resting shelf for the Tall Man!

We also walked passed this man who was making statues out of wood with his electric saw. Can you tell what it is??

We asked Lillie to pick one final ride and it was back to the carousel. Notice Daddy decided to actually HOP ON the horse, rather then just standing next to it!! Ride 'em Cowboy!!

What clowns!! Daddy is whooping it up and Lillie is putting on her princess pose.
