A Bit of a Carnival

Our neighborhood fire department hosted it's annual carnival last week so we decided to walk over and check it out.  I can't remember the last time I was at a real live traveling carnival complete with interesting carny folk and scantily clad teenagers--I definitely don't remember them being so expensive--the carnival, not the teenagers.  I'm sorry kids, but I just couldn't justify spending $18 for my two year old to have an all you can ride carnival bracelet.  We opted to spend $18 total--enough for Chris and the boys to ride the giant slide and take a spin on the Ferris wheel.  




Well, I guess it wasn't exactly $18 total--we also dropped a fair bit of money on the children's dinner of overpriced  ice cream and french fries......some days you just go to bed knowing you're doing a fantastic job at this whole parenting thing ;)

  1. Eh.....a junk food dinner is ok every now and then....you're building memories. I still remember my grandmother asking if we wanted Banana Splits from DQ for supper because it was too hot to cook anything!
