Norfolk county fair was fun!

We went to the simcoe norfolk county fair yesterday. We were planning on leaving at 9am to get there early and have a good parking spot. We ended up leaving the house after 10am. That's what happens when you have kids. hehe..

We got a nice parking spot and we hit the ticket booth. Manny got the kids a ride all day bracelet pass and we had to get them from the booths. They weren't even open yet so we waited in the long line up (kids P.A. Day). We finally got the bracelet passes and the kids were off! They went on a Nemo ride, a bee ride, car ride, motorcycle ride, etc.,...I think they went on all the rides that they 'could' go on (for their height requirements). It was still kinda cloudy and cool out. I decided to bring Emi to the kids learning centre area. It's a room where you can change diaper, give feedings, play and rest if you need to. I really love it there because it's so friendly and a nice size room for kids to play in. We stayed there for about 30mins and then decided to go back out. The weather was beginning to get warmer, so we walked around and then decided to eat lunch. We ate hamburger, fries and hot dog at Knights of Columbus booth. Food was pretty good and then the kids were off to go on more rides.

Emi and I stayed in the food area by the bandstand. We got a good spot to see the Bandaloni play. He's a one man band with guitar, drums, cymbals, microphone, harmonica, etc.,...He's really fun to watch and Emi was so happy through the whole performance. She got out of her stroller and started stomping and dancing and spinning around. How cute! He played a few kids songs like 'twinkle twinkle little star', 'you've got a friend in me', etc.,...He's always so much fun to watch! Definitely have to buy his cd & dvd set next year!

Mika was happy to see her classmate Kaitlyn there. They played games and won goldfish, too. Mika's fish died before we even got in the car.

All in all it was a great day! Can't wait for next year! Wonder who the performer will be? This year it was Carly Rae Jepsen. Last year Chantal Kreviazuk. Year before Barenaked Ladies. Gets better and better!
