This past weekend, I took Arwen to the carnival at our local mall. She saw this Ferris Wheel in the distance from our car as we were driving up and said, "Mommy look! Happy Birthday!!" I love that those are the only words that she could find to capture her excitement of seeing her first Ferris Wheel.
She had her unlimited ride bracelet and was ready to go.
The ride operator made me get on this teeny weeny train with her.
Hence the reason for the extreme close-up.
But one of the reasons I love going to a local carnival is because of the way they feel. There is a sense of community there. They have a charm that you just can't find at a larger amusement park.
And the Funnel Cakes.....ohhhhhh the Funnel Cakes......
By the end of our adventure, my baby was tuckered out, but didn't want to admit it. She didn't want to leave.
Until next time.....
Hi! I just popped over from the Posie Gets Cozy blog after I read your funny comment about the creepy animated Watership Down movie - my sister and I had the same reaction when we were young!
Love your blog and all the great photos - your little girl is adorable!
