Del Mar Fair

Saturday, June 23 we went to the Del Mar fair. At the last second, Ever asked about bringing a friend, and Jim let her invite both Ella and Ellis. We spent a ton of money, and the girls had lots of fun. Tiny was amazingly good in the stroller for a long time. Then she caught on to the fact that she was missing out and became very, very unhappy about not being able to go on any rides. Next year she should be big enough to participate a bit.

In the fun house, the girls got stuck in the initial window section (pictured below). They seriously could not find their way out. Ever ran into one of the window walls pretty hard. I laughed and got in trouble for it because turns out it really hurt. Anyway, the worker eventually had to go show them the way out.

At first Wrenzy seemed a little tentative but OK on the bumper boats. She became increasingly freaked out and began to cry. "People are bonking me!" I tried to explain that that was the point of the ride, but she wasn't having it. Finally a worker had to pull her boat to the side where I was standing so I could take her out. 

We got funnel cakes. Ever took hers down in her typical eating-contest fashion.

We rode the carousel a couple times. That was the only thing Tiny could do.

We topped the day off with In-N-Out on the way home.

The fair is the highlight of Ever's year, and she can't wait for next time.
