Main Street Days

I love taking the girls to festivals! They love going on all the tiny rides and eating things they hardly ever get to. Usually, it's super warm at festivals in Texas as they are hardly ever planned when the weather is mild and are also typically put onto lots of hot pavement. This year for Main Street Days, though, the weather was cooler than it could have been which led to a pretty fun evening with family out on the town!

Unfortunately, we don't live as close to the fun as we used to so it was a little bit of a drive and Janie happened to fall asleep in the car. That worked out in Nora's favor since she got to have a little solo time with mommy, Mimi & Pops once we got there while Justin waited in the car with Janie until she woke up.

We started with rides and even ventured out a little bit and all rode the big ferris wheel together.

About when Janie was up and through the gates we stopped riding rides so that everyone could eat something. With toddlers, you have to stay on top of the madness that is hungry children!

Of course, there were requests for snow cones, as they were pictured on the outside of the food stand. If you ever order a snow cone from the stand at a festival, they do not look like the beautiful rainbow snow cone that is on the front of the stand. They are one color or at best - three colors mixed together to make a bluish-blackish color. Luckily, the three mixed color snow cone appeased Janie enough so we took that, a pretzel, and a corn dog away from the stand and ate it all up!

"Rainbow" snow cone and overpriced corn dog.

After we ate there were more rides, of course! Until the tickets ran out...

The girls actually really liked the miniature roller coaster that they rode on. Once it took off, I wasn't sure how they would handle the speed of the ride, but they loved it! It was a great evening at Main Street Days!
