First Friday and Fair Fun

Nathan had a busy weekend. He kicked it off on Friday evening by going to Daddy's squadron for First Friday. It was a week early because of the holiday next week. Nathan loves hanging out at the squadron. He always makes his way to the squadron bar to shoot some hoops before he can do anything else.
Nathan says those are Daddy's B-1's. He wanted to go out there and see them so bad, but Daddy told him that they are being fixed. All Nathan has been talking about ever since Friday night is, "Those guys fixed Daddy's B-1's. Now Daddy can fly them in the sky. They go fasssssssttttt!"
He had a great time jumping in the bouncy house with the other kids.
It was almost impossible to get him to leave.
Then on Saturday we checked out the fair. Nathan rode on the merry-go-round.
Then he saw this Lucky Duck game that he recognized from the duck race we went to last month. He yelled, "I can do this! I can do this!" and ran up and started grabbing ducks, so Steve whipped out some cash.
Nathan won this sword. In his mind, it doubles as an airplane. Actually, everything doubles as an airplane in his mind.
Then it was off to get some food. Nathan and I shared some curly fries.
I don't know which he liked better, the fries or the ketchup.

  1. That is one giant sword! And if you're wondering when kids grow out of having ketchupy faces, I'll let you know when it happens here...
