A very Happy Father's Day to all Dads, especially to my wonderful husband, father and poppa.
Hmmm the weather outside looks a bit iffy, the sun is trying to peak through the clouds but today is Show day for us. Katie woke up early and was ready to go, no problem getting her out of bed today. On the way she said, "my legs are getting very excited to be going to the Show".
It turned out to be a funtastic day....we had so much fun despite the showers. When we got to the show Katie went and chose her showbags....Beanie Kids, the Mega Showbag simply for the fact that it had a rip-stick, and LA Ink for the 'hip hop" hat. We also did the Yellow Brick Road which is always a lot of fun going to the different stalls situated throughout the showgrounds and picking up the goodies they offer, like oranges, apples, pears, carrots, bread, snack bars, yoghurt.
She had several rides including the Magic Circus, Traffic Jam, Crazy Coaster. She went on the Carnevil Castle with her Poppa but was not amused...."I am never going on that again," she exclaimed, "I was soooo scared!" She wanted a ride on the Rock N Roll and so Poppa said he would go with her, but I don't think he will be going again any time soon. It was advertised as being the fastest ride at the Show and it was....forwards and then backwards and when it got up to speed the cars just became a blur. Katie loved it!!!
We met up with Jodi, Troy and Taylor. Katie and Taylor enjoyed a couple of rides together.
We walked around looking at some of the animals.......pigs, sheep, cows......she even had a go at trying to milk one. We went into the shed where they have a dairy set up and when she saw how the cows are hooked up to the milking machines she declared she was never going to drink milk again. In the animal nursery she loved watching the piglets trying to feed from the mother.
By the time we arrived home we were all utterly exhausted and ready for bed. So glad the Show only comes around once a year.
From the Lens.......It's Showtime
