"Drivin' Round the Fair" video

At the county fair, they had several rides for kids 36" or taller. Maya is 36.75" tall which gave her access to go on these exciting rides by herself. We notice a ride where kids get to 'drive' in circles. She wants to ride, she picks her car, and she can't stop smiling...

Happiness.

County Fair

To support our new county, we decided to attend the Marin County Fair. It was great. The fair was well attended but not crazy crowded and Maya was entralled the entire time. She loved the carnival rides, the animals on display, the equestrian show, the food, the ice cream and...the FIREWORKS!! Hats off to the carnies, local residents and farmers, the organizers, and the cool firework igniters for putting on such a fun event.

Yay fair.

Maya wonders when the fireworks will start?

We find our spot for viewing Maya's very first fireworks display.

Maya loved the show. She was nervous about the noise, but then we put the hood of her sweatshirt over her ears and that appeared solve the problem. We'll definitely be back next year!
