Emily and I are on a little vacation to Arizona. Our first stop was to go to the county fair. A friend of my mom's daughter had a pig up there that she was showing so we went to visit her. She let Emily into the pen to pet her giant pig. Emily even helped clean him up by dumping straw on him and then wiping him off with a brush. This was one big pig! It was pretty fun to watch Emily play all over him. Luckily for us Joe Dirt (the pig) was a nice pig who really didn't care if a two year played clean up all over him.
Of course since it is a county fair there are rides and games and what not. It was so funny when we were walking around Emily was shaking with excitement looking at the rides. She kept yelling, "Look MOM! Look at that!" Pointing to different rides. So after visiting the animals we went to let her do a few rides. However, as we were buying tickets they ladies at the window said kids had to be 36" to ride ANYTHING, even with an adult. (Emily is about 30"). Man oh man was she ticked when we had to take her away. Of course Grandma makes everything better by taking her to a park that had little rides for kids. She rode a carousel, a plane ride (similar to dumbo), a spinning ride, and a helicopter ride. We finished the day off with her very own ice cream cone. Thanks for a fun day at the fair Grandma.
