Our weekend started off normal enough, then at some point on Saturday Adelaide developed a snotty nose and cough out of nowhere. But we pushed through with our plans and headed out to the Celina Balloon Festival, and I for one, had quite a good time *SPOILER ALERT: WE HAD A FUNNEL CAKE! :) Adelaide was a little more hot and cold. The carousel to start and end was a highlight for her. The funnel cake that Jordan waited in line for for thirty minutes was a highlight for me. Well worth the wait my friend. Oh, and did I mention the homemade root beer? Jordan estimates that we downed about 32 ounces each. That was fun. And made for a somewhat uncomfortable ride home. The midway this year left a lot to be desired. Were all the good rides at the state fair or something? The choices of rides could best be described as lame. But yeah, the funnel cake... that made up for anything else that may have been lacking. And I guess we'd better invest in a magic invisible but super cozy and warm coat for Adelaide, because the fight to keep a sweater on her was epic. Okay, maybe not quite epic, but I can already see the struggle we're going to be enduring over the coming months when it comes to the sweater/coat/I'm-just-trying-to-keep-you-from-freezing thing.
Her dissatisfaction with the sweater situation was fairly apparent I would say.
There was some dancing...
... and people watching rudely staring. It's the way of children across the globe I believe.
Initially the balloons firing up impressed even the toughest critic...
But it didn't take long for the lure and mystery of camera lens to take over top billing. It's pretty clear who enjoyed this particular outing the most. Cause did I mention the funnel cake? ;)
