Our Visit to the Rodeo - Part 2 - "The Carnival"

After lunch we headed to the carnival area of the rodeo. We decided to see if Elijah would show any interest in riding the rides. To our complete surprise, not only did he want to ride them, he wanted to ride ALL of them. This completely shocked us. We were also taken back when he got upset when we left the carnival area. Crazy but sweet! If he could have rode the rides over and over we believe he would have. The only down side of the carnival was there was a limited amount of rides that he was able to enjoy for his height and that we could ride with him. There were many rides he desired to try but even with one of us riding with him, he still had to meet the height requirements. We felt SO bad for him but we used this opportunity to emphasize the importance of rules. He had so much fun! (as did we).

Let the fun begin and he LOVED it!
