APPLE FEST and the truth about Carneys


We had a pretty awesome Sunday.
Aaron woke up extra early to go fishing on the last day of the season
with our friends Dan and Liz.
David and Ada and I stayed home, ate pancakes
and then decided to head off to Apple Fest in Gays Mills.
It's pretty much a reason to get kids to want to go on rides and spend lots of money on junky food and stuff you don't really need.
It was great.
The minute we got out of the car David said "FUN!" in the cutest voice ever...
and we went and LOOKED at the rides...
which I thought I couldn't bring him on because he was too short...

Well... remember that thing about Carney's: they are usually pretty looped.
and by looped I mean WASTED.
Let's be honest. Carney's are cool, but don't trust them with your kids and any money you give them WILL be spent on drugs and booze.
Which is why they get paid in TICKETS. Not in cash.
anyway. That lady had NO IDEA that David isn't 36 inches tall
and I knew he would be fine in those little cars... So I let him go on a ride.
It was AWESOME!
I'm just really glad that he didn't figure out how to ring the bell like that other kid did.
it was annoying. instead, he was just really flippin cute.

FUN! no wonder the worker-dude was gonna let max go on the bungy jumper thing that he was like 10'' to short for. Got it... pay in tickets, HA.
