South Jordan's Parade and Carnival

Last year we went to South Jordan's town days parade and had a lot of fun so we decided to go again this year.  The girls liked the parade a lot.  Lydia caught on really quickly about getting the candy, but it took Brooke a little longer to get the hang of it.  Brooke was content with just two pieces of candy, one for each hand.

 

 After the parade we went over to their carnival.  The carnival has this animal train that gives the kids a ride for free.  I think it is awesome.  Brooke loved it and waved the whole time she was on the ride.

 Lydia thought it was a lot of fun too.  I think it was cute.  There is a 4-wheeler that pulls all of the carts.

 We told the girls that they could each go on three rides.  Of course, they picked the carousel so they could ride the horses.  Justin was the lucky parent that "got" to go on it with them.  Neither one of us really enjoy going around and around.

 Brooke and Lydia also picked the dragon ride.  I love Brooke's face because she is so serious when she is concentrating on things even if she is having fun.

 Lydia thought the ride was a lot of fun and kept trying to give Justin a high five when she went past us.

 The last ride they went on was some jeep ride.  It was great because they both had steering wheels and they both stayed focused on driving the whole time.

It surprises me how expensive carnival rides are.  I wish we could have justified letting the girls go on more rides, but it was still a fun day and they had a fun time.
