a pony for christmas!

We went to the Carp Fair on Saturday. Lilah's first request when we walked through the gates was for the big wheel. I don't know what it is about the big wheel that has her so intrigued, but it was her first request at the exact same fair last year.

Of course, we all went on the big wheel! And the bouncy castle and the carousel and the dragon ride!

But the moment I saw her enjoy herself the most, was when she got a little pony ride. Oh my. The grin on her face said it all! I have a funny feeling she'll be asking us for a pony soon, maybe even for Christmas!

It was a very fun day!

(As a side note, just last week we booked our tickets to N.Ireland for Christmas, which means Lilah will get as many rides as she wants from Tyson, Pa's horse. Get ready Pa!)

  1. Good thing Grandpa has ponies... not sure one would fit in your backyard, or that the neighbours would approve!

    Looks like a great time!

  8. Oh my, that fair looks like the best time ever!!

    Lilah looks like a little equestrian astride that pony! Her outfit is totally appropriate (not to mention the hat - safety and good looks all rolled into one!) So sweet.

    Great to hear that you are heading home for Christmas!
