Two years ago, just a few weeks before Avery was born, we went downtown to the Mainfest on the river. It is a huge festival with lots of spinning rides, overpriced games and delicious fair food. Despite being 9 months pregnant in the summer heat, we had a wonderful time. The kids talked about it for months. So when the festival came again this year, we went.
The festival is located right on the Main River, which makes it even more exciting.
The first thing we did was ride the HUGE ferris wheel.

Avery and Misty (obviously not ready for the picture)
Caden playing a throwing game. We tried to tell him what a wast of money it was, but he insisted. When he only got some plastic vampire teeth as a prize, he finally believed us. Oh well, that's what the fair is all about....memories and not money.
Brice, Caden and Kayla on a spinning ride. I don't really do spinning things very well in my "old age" so Brice took them. They LOVED it. (Video at the end of post.)
Kayla on the BIG swings. These things were huge, but they wanted to ride. When I put Kayla in the chair she got a little apprehensive and wanted me to ride next to her. I did, felt sick and was grateful that I'm not pregnant and have to feel this way every day. Ugh. I should have know better....I don't do spinning things.

Kayla and Avery on the "little kids" ride. Aver rode it 3 times. She threw a huge fit when we made her finally get off.
Perfect end to a great family night out!
See how fast this ride was. I get nauseous just watching. Caden and Kayla had a blast!

Do you remember when we rode the swings over and over again ay Operyland? I can't believe we didn't get sick.
Looks like a fun night!
