The Carnival

Friday night there was a carnival down the road from our house. It cost a buck for Dave and I to get in and all the rides were a buck. OMG did Livynut have a good time. The jumbo slide was by far her favorite. She would hit the bottom and scream out, "again daddy" and take off running back up the stairs. Ava was not a carnie. She thought the slide was frightening and when I asked her if she wanted to go again she promptly returned with a "no" thank you. Of course we didn't listen and put her on it again. She rode down with the look of fear and told me sharply, "no no no." Got it. We won't be doing that again.

There was a train that we all rode together. Ava like that one because she could steer the wheel and press the button for music. We stayed for a few hours and let Olivia just pick whatever she wanted to go on until she was tired and fulfilled. It was nice and warm outside and an excellent way to spend a Friday night.
