Osceola Fair

I know....I know....it's been two weeks since the Osceola Fair and I'm finally just getting around to posting pictures and videos. Remember when I used to blog 12 - 13 times a month instead of the 4 - 5 times I've been doing lately? I promise I'll try to get better...

The Osceola Fair this year was a ton of fun! The weather was perfect and the boys did great...that is for having their nap schedules completed screwed up and on top of that being pumped full of candy, sweets, and sugary items. But what would the fair be without all that? :-)

Saturday morning started with the 10K for me and meeting Brian and the boys up at the airport for breakfast and to look at the planes. They had a military helicopter there that you could sit in and climb on. Logan thought it was pretty cool.

[I have more pictures in the helicopter but can't seem to find them right now...]

Then the plan was to take the boys home, eat lunch, nap and then head back into the fair for ride wristbands...only problem was that neither one of the boys wanted to do the nap part. They both slept for MAYBE a half hour...if that...and were up and wide awake. So back into the fair we want. Logan LOVED the rides!

Cody wasn't big enough yet to go on all the rides. But he did manage to go on a few rides and loved them just as much as Logan did!

Logan was getting off the first ride of the day when he looked up and saw Autumn and Elle from daycare. I don't think I've mentioned this before, but Logan LOVES Elle. She's his favorite friend to play with at daycare and was very sad this year that Elle has to leave for part of the day to go to Pre-K. So seeing them at the fair was an added bonus for Logan. The icing on the cake! Elle's the little girl with curly hair sitting next to Logan and Autumn is the other little girl. Elle and Autumn are sisters. They look so cute together!

Look at them laughing and having a great time!! It's so cute!!

On the cars again. The cars were the boys' favorite ride at the fair!

The road crew! Kim, my Mom, Dad and Godfather Steve where there to help with the boys. Brian's Mom and Janelle were also there for a little bit as well. Thank you! I couldn't have done that by myself!

As soon as we got to the fair Logan points up at this big adult ride that goes upside down and spins and says, "I want to go on that." He kept asking the entire time to go on this big ride. Well I wasn't about to take him on that ride...but I did think he'd enjoy the Ferris Wheel (and that Mom could stomach the Farris Wheel!) Man was I right! He LOVED the Ferris Wheel! We had a blast, laughing and screaming and pointing at all the things far away the entire ride!

Chillin' on the swings. On Friday night we took Logan into the fair as well and tried to get him on the swings. The operator wouldn't let him on cause he was about an inch too short. Guess the operator on Saturday didn't care as much and let him right on. You can see how tired he looks in this picture. As soon as he stopped moving he crashed. :-)

Then on Sunday was the Osceola parade. At the ranch it was kind of chilly out, so all of us were wearing jeans and our football jersey's (Logan insisted we all wear our jerseys.) Turns out it was actually kind of hot out and we all immediately began sweating our butts of at the parade. Cody found a way to style it out though and looked adorable!

Julie the boys' daycare provider is also a First Responder, so she was in the parade. Kim just happened to get her on video literally dumping the candy bucket into Logan's hat! It was too funny! We love you Julie! :-)

I'm in the band! After the band walked by, Logan got the idea that he could do what the drummers were doing and decided to show us his drumming and marching skills!

Cody showin' us his dance moves!


Double fistin' it!
