Balloons, Tunes and BBQ Festival 2012 (9/8/12)

Dear Gage,

On Saturday, September 8, we went to the 2012 Balloon, Tunes and BBQ Festival at the airport. This year we didn't get rained out, so we were able to enjoy the festival. You were also big enough to ride on some of the carnival rides, so that was a lot of fun.

We walked around when we first got there and you were immediately amazed by the "big cow!" No matter where we went, you would always revert your attention back to the cow! We listened to the live music for a while and you danced a little. Granny, Pa, and Jeffrey met us there and we went to ride some of the rides. You've never ridden carnival rides, so this was a new experience for you.

I took you on the Carousel first. We posed for several pictures on the horses but ended up sitting in one of the seats for the ride. You also rode the Carousel with Pa and Granny. There were several other rides that were your size, so you gave those a try. You rode solo on the boats. We were a little worried about how you would do on the boats all alone, but you were such a big boy. You held on tight and even steered the wheel. After the boats, you rode the baby roller coaster with Daddy. Poor Daddy could hardly fit in the little car, but you both seemed to enjoy yourselves very much! Your favorite ride was the giant slide. You went down multiple times with Daddy and Jeffy and once with Pa. You had so much fun!!
