Circleville Pumpkin Show 2008

We made our yearly pilgrimage to Circleville for the Pumpkin Show. Appropriately, Caroline got a small pumpkin from her friend, Connor, and somehow managed to lose it within the first four minutes she had it. It was no where to be found, so a picture is all we have. Caroline also enjoyed her share of fair food. She loved the french fries, but didn't care for caramel apples...whose kid is she, anyway??

Then, the kids rode some carnival rides. Caroline rode the Merry-Go-Round at the State Fair, and she rode another one this weekend. We also took her on the Ferris wheel which moved at a very quick pace. Caroline was not scared at all, and she loved the cool wind in her face. The only scary part (for Megan and me) was when we were unloading, and Caroline was getting very squirmy because she wanted it to go!
She also really like the ponies. She spent a good portion of her ride leaning forward as far as the saddle would let her, so she could pet the pony's mane. Luckily, she was being very gentle. The girl was tired, so she decided to sit down and relax for a moment.

And, here's one just for Uncle...All in all, we had a great day, and Kathy fulfilled a life-long dream of having a deep-fried Twinkie, but I thought she might disown me if I put a picture of that!
