Sunday May 27th, 2012 - The Gloucester Fair

The Gloucester Fair is one of the first fairs in the Ottawa area always held the last weekend in May and it has the best selection of stuff for young kids.. We have gone with Campbell once before but last year the weather wasn't good that weekend so we didn't go. This year the weather was AMAZING and Campbell being older had SO much fun.. Miles had fun too but was more limited in what he could go on. 
Campbell and Daddy outside the ferris wheel which was Campbell's choice to be the first ride of the day.. We were both a little worried that it would scare him and turn him off for the other rides but luckily we were wrong.. He loved it.. 

Campbell on his first EVER ride by himself.. The NEMO ride.. He was a little nervous at first I think but once it got going he really liked it.. and I believe went on again later in the day..
Campbell on his first EVER pony ride.. He really liked it, not that you could tell by the picture.. but he really wanted to go on and he talked about it a lot after.. but while on he was super shy and didn't move or say anything.. :)
Feeding the animals at the petting zoo part of the fair.. They both love animals and were super excited to see and feed them.
Miles is an animal lover too.. He was squeeling with excitement..
 Mommy and her boys on the Merry Go Round. Miles' first ride EVER!! and he loved it.. he kept saying "WEEEEE!!"
Campbell's second ride on his own.. was the motorbike ride.. He liked this one a lot.. it didn't go up and down like the nemo ride but the bikes all had horns that the kids could honk.. I would totally lose my mind being the person in charge of this ride..
 Daddy and Campbell on the Bee ride.. it does go up and down and he loved it..
 Daddy and Campbell up in the air on the Bee ride.
 Campbell and Daddy on the Monster Truck ride.. This one I think was Campbell's favourite.. the trucks didn't leave the ground but on one side of the circle they went over a small hill and on the other side they went over a few crushed cars.. it was bumpy and rocky going over the cars and J said Campbell just loved that part.. :) I think that they went on this one at least twice maybe three times..

Miles and Mommy on the Bee ride.. hard to say what Miles thought of this one.. I think he liked it.. he definitely held on tight but he was smiling and didn't want to get off when it was over..
It was an amazing day.. the kids were REALLY good and we all had a great time.. I think this will be a tradition as long as the weather is good.
