Fiesta Days

Monday, July 21 was family night at the Fiesta Days carnival in Spanish Fork.  So we decided to see if Kendrick would like more rides this year.  Last year at the Ute Stampede carnival, he didn't really want to ride the rides, so we weren't sure how he would be this year.  

Earlier that day we were out running errands and we went to Partyland in Springville.  They have this train inside their store.  Kendrick loves to play on it when he comes with me to this store.  I took a pic of him on it today.  He was also excited to go to the carnival that night.  He kept asking about it all day.

The first thing he wanted to do was go down the giant slide.  Kendrick loves to go down slides, so we thought this would be fun for him.  Scott took him up to the top, thinking that Kendrick would go down himself.  But, we were wrong.  Kendrick freaked out a little bit and had to have Scott go down with him.

 Once Kendrick did it, he was ok and liked going down the slide.
 He did not want me to take his picture on this ride!  He also didn't have a nap today either!
 He had a great time on this boat ride.  Mainly because of the crazy carny worker!  He was splashing water on all of the kids as they went around.  Luckily it was way hot that evening and most of the kids thought it was fun!

 It was fun to see him actually having fun on the rides this year!
 He was brave and went on a lot more rides.
 Fun times!
 Everyone thinks Kendrick is older than he is because he is so tall.  I think the kids on this ride wanted to spin more, but Kendrick didn't get it?
 The lines were long, since it was family night and the tickets are only $1 and each ride takes only 1 ticket.  But, when you're a single rider, you get to move to the front of the line a lot.  And you get to sit by a cute girl.
 Kendrick had a good time on the roller coaster.  It was fun to watch him laugh and interact with the girl sitting next to him.
 He had a great time!
 This "bee" ride was one of the last rides he went on.  He was getting tired, if you can't tell in this pic.

We had a fun night and Kendrick definitely was doing better on the rides this year.  A lot of the time he is scared to do something until he tries it, and then he loves it.  I just need to figure out a way to get him to try stuff before thinking he doesn't like it.
