The Dixie Classic Fair

Brandon, Maddy, Karen, Chevy and I spent a fun filled - and exhausting - Saturday together. We first stopped by a roping in Walkertown that Brandon was supposed to rope in, but due to extenuating circumstances (a lame horse and Brandon's broken thumb) he had to back out. The kids got to see the horses, a small petting zoo with a donkey, goat and pig and get their faces painted.

Next, we headed off to the Dixie Classic Fair. It was a ton of fun, but after about 3 hours we were all ready to get out of there.

This is Maddy as a Kitty Cat...

Our first stop was the slide...

This was a fire truck that went up really high in the air and swung in circles...

This was a train ride...

Here we are looking at the huge horses...

Here is Chevy taking a break while I hit the ATM (I forgot how expensive the fair is!)

Next Stop: Ice Cream

This was hilarious - it was our favorite ride - the whole thing goes around really fast and then these little cages we sat in also went in circles! Each time it flipped in a circle you couldn't help but tighten every muscle in your body. Chevy's face was priceless and I was roaring with laughter the whole time!

Brandon and Chevy were on this one. It goes up really high and drops down...

On the way home, Chevy already wanted to know when we were going back. Brandon said we would be going back NEXT YEAR! It was a lot of fun though and a beautiful day for the fair. For anyone else thinking of going - do not ride the thing that looks like a hang glider. There is a reason no one smiles when they get off that ride!
