Austin Fair and Rodeo 2013

There was so much fun to be had last year at the fair (and a goldfish souvenir to prove it), we decided we should go again this year.  Of course, the first thing Ethan wanted to do was ride the ferris wheel.

 Afterward, he made it a mission to ride nearly every ride he could, most of which he rode by himself.  Gushy mommy may have teared up a little.

all by himself

I think he had fun

and more fun

Next he won a tiger at the water squirting game.  Maybe he only had to compete with Daddy and Nana, but it still counts.

He made sure to keep Buzz Lightyear updated on all the fun by calling him on his Buzz phone.

 Then Ethan, Cory, and my mom went into the fun house.  Which, for Ethan was not so much fun after he ran into some plexiglass in the mirror portion.

Proof that he was not impressed with the fun house.

But at least Cory got to ride the slide

And Nana too.

 Definitely a good time at the fair that we hope to repeat next year.
