County Fair

Remember my chicken pox post? Well, we escaped the pox, but Alison, Eli and I all got hand, foot, mouth disease. Thankful it was an extremely light case and was nothing more than some blisters on our feet and a slightly sore throat. We spent most of the week at home, but escaped Friday evening to go to the fair.

We started the evening off with some cotton candy. Alison loved that it was pink, but said it was too sticky. She's stopped wanting jelly on her PB&J's for the same reason.Alison talked for a week about riding the ferris wheel, but when it came down to it, this is as close as she could get. We even attempted to get her to ride the carousel, but that was a no go too.

They had tigers, elephants and bears at the fair. You could ride the elephants and the bears walked around in hand-stands. We all thought it was pretty cool...
except for Alison.

Maybe next year. :)

Hand foot mouth disease can be really nasty from what I hear so I'm glad you guys got a mild case. I was meaning to ask you whatever happened with those chicken pox.
