CNE Fun

We took the kids to the CNE last Saturday and had a great time despite us getting there much later than we had planned. We had first made a stop at a Toy store to pick up the free Th@mas train that was being given away, Gavin and I both took turns going in and were able to get each of the boys a train that we didn't already have. Due to a major accident on the highway we had to find an alternate route, it took about an hour to go what normally would take 10 minutes, the traffic was crazy! Finally we made it to the CNE just in time for lunch.

The kids loved the rides of course. There were a few that Noah could go on with one of us and Owen was tall enough that he could go on a few rides on his own. He looked like such a big boy going all by himself on some rides! Noah especially loved the rides that spun around...no surprise there. He kept saying "weeeeeee" and laughing hysterically.





During the clown magic show kids were invited up on stage. Notice who's kids refused to go up without mommy or daddy? I wasn't going up either! someone had to take the picture :)


Owen quickly tired of the magic show and left his younger brother to join his parents on the sidelines. Noah stayed for the entire thing even participating with the crowd and following the other kids lead.





I forget the name of the building but there was a lesson on "energy" for kids. Owen was sooo excited he could have stayed there all day watching the fans. He even made his own pinwheel. While decorating his pinwheel the lady running the craft asked him what he was drawing and he replied " a picture of you" ha it looked nothing like her, but it was funny anyways. Of course he wanted a pink pinwheel :)


We made it to the super dogs show this year, last year we missed it because both kids fell asleep just prior to the show starting. Noah loved the dog show he clapped and cheered as the dogs ran by.
