Lily enjoying a slice of Vermont's own American Flatbread pizza (and Ella looking on, desperately wanting a taste!)
It was nice be "be home" for a little while!
We also got Lily some maple cotton candy! Ella again was desperate to get a taste....and this time she did! I kept catching her with little bits of cotton candy in her hand!
After Vermont (and a cider doughnut and a long trail!) we explored Maine's state building, and split a lobster roll. Then, being overly stuffed at that point, we headed over to the kiddie ride area to let Lily ride some rides.
She had a blast on the swings:
And of course loved the kiddie coaster (She will be a coaster junkie...I'll make sure of it!)
And the spinning dragons ride with Mommy:
And of course we can't go to a faire without riding the carousel!
She also rode a kiddie train, and Daddy checked out the spook house. We then walked around some again, and stopped to watch some horses get cleaned, and then headed back to the state buildings to check out VT again (another long trail to split and sugar on snow!!!) and then walked through MA, and RI (were we got a stuffed quahog...YUM!) And then stopped to watch the parade! THe girls all loved it when confettie was sprayed at the croud! The girls of course tried to eat it!
Speaking of the girls, they had a fun day of people watching from the stroller! (I feel so horrible on these outings we do now...we need to be hands free for Lily...so the poor girls end up staying in their stroller the whole time...where as when it was just Lily, we would always have her out to look at things! I've got some serious Mama guilt over this dilemma! I do try to get them out as much as possible! ) Violet had a good time entertaining herself by singing though...and was showing off her new teeth! (She got 3 in the month of September! She flew right past her sister in the teeth department!)
Singing while Lily was riding the carousel:
Being goofy and showing off those teeth while watching the big horses get cleaned. Notice her top tooth in this one!
Ella contemplating being in VT (or maybe she was trying to figure out why Violet was strapped to me, and not her!):
Being goofy while Lily rode rides! I love her crooked grin!
After the parade was finished we headed back to the ride area so Lily could ride one last ride. She chose to do the swings again! Clearly she had a fun time on them!
Our visit to the Big E was short, but fun! I don't know that we will go back every year (it was SO crowded!) but I'm sure we will be back someday....after all, Sean never got his deep fried oreo's that he was so longing for (Gag me! This Mommy is very thankful we never did find that stand! Haha!)
