Carnival Time

The kids were so excited earlier in the week when we went to the carnival and we told them that we would go again before the carnival left. The carnival leaves tomorrow so it was now or never. We got there about 8:30pm tonight and the first ride the kids wanted to ride was the roller coaster, which, by the way, Austin is mysteriously now tall enough to go on. They had such a blast.

The next ride they did was the little jungle safari train ride. They had a really good time on that one too. However, it was hilarious because the operator had to keep pushing it to get it to go when it was on the far end of the track. When the ride was over, the operator explained that one of the motors just went out and it had a hard time getting around.



The next booth the kids hit was the duck grabbing one and the kids ended up getting some crazy blow up toys at that one. Austin got a dolphin and Danny got a smiley face hammer.

Then, it was off to the balloon bustin' booth. Danny got to do this last Sunday and Austin was terribly hurt, so today, it was Austin's turn. Kamal got into a discussion with the guy running it because he said for $3.00 you got one dart and had to pop a balloon in order to get a prize. That's not what we were told on Sunday. On Sunday, they told us that you got a prize whether you popped the balloon or not, and luckily, Danny had popped the balloon. So the guy called over his manager and his manager approved it that Austin could get a prize whether he popped the balloon or not. But I guess Austin didn't care about that because he did an AWESOME JOB popping the balloon all on his own. I was so proud of him! Such a great little champ.

Here is what Austin won:
