PNE

This year Mom and I with Camia made the trip out to the PNE for a day. The weather was gorgeous. It was also another reminder that my baby is growing us as she was allowed on all of the kids rides this year because she was tall enough. I thought for sure she wouldn't go by herself on any of them. I was wrong. As it turns out, she didn't want to get OFF any of them! The best part was watching her have fun. Mom bought her a ride pass, and we more than got our money's worth out of it. So Camia got to go on all of the rides. Twice. Definitely her favourite, I think.

She loved the slides, I love the smiles that were captured from that day.

A flash towards the future

This ride was hilarious. I laughed so much because there was one part that was crazy bumpy, and every time we got to that part, Camia almost split her sides laughing.

I love this photo. It portrays the love between grandparent and granddaughter. A special connection :)

Last year this was her favourite ride. It was one of the few she could go on last year. This year it was number 1 as well. Along with all the other rides.

Another things Camia especially loved was the barns. Seeing all the animals was special for her. She got to see calves and watched as Oma let the calf suckle her fingers

She got to see and touch a baby chicken as well.

Her favourite, I think, was the big huge white cow. Unfortunately I didn't get any pictures of it, but it was massive.

Like last year, they had the barn where kids get to be farmers for a day. While it's supposed to be educational and there are people trying to explain to kids what each station is, it was a little difficult to try get a 3 year old to stay still and listen. I think the people gave up trying to explain things. Camia got to plant seeds and then 'harvest' the vegetable she planted.

She got to milk a cow and was curious how the 'milk' (it was actually water) got into the cow in the first place.

This year there was a fishing station, which was kind of cool. Camia got to grab a net and fish for a little while.

And her favourite was, of course, to ride the tractors again.

While at the fair, we checked out the market place and Mom bought this little train track for Camia. Camia and Ryan had fun setting it up together that evening after the fair.

Thanks, Mom, for a great day of fun again this year! Camia still talks about it. Every time she sees a bus, she is reminded that we took the bus to the fair after we went on the skytrain - an adventure all by its self.
