Yesterday, we visited the Wilmington Flower Market!
Wilmington Flower Market = Carnival = FUNNEL CAKE:
Michael had his first funnel cake and he LOVED it. What is the Wilmington Flower Market not like? It's not like a flower market. I think they had like 3 booths TOTAL that sold plants. It was an excuse to have a carnival.
Michael rode every ride. And of course, the carousel. Where did my little baby go?
The event was held at Rockdale Park in Wilmington. We drove through the windy backroads of PA and DE to see the tented park near this tourist attraction:
That's right. A tower in a park. Can't say things are THAT much different than in Europe. :)
Here's Michael with my parents and the fish he won. My parents bought him enough tickets to ride every ride. TWICE. Grandparents...gotta love 'em:
And this is what I did while my mom rode the ferris wheel with Michael. Which pic do you like better? The one where the wheel looks bright and cheery? 
Or the one where the sky has a gloomy look?
Or neither? It's ok if it's neither. You can put that in the comments. Something to the effect of: "I don't like either of these pictures because I don't want to see you practicing with your camera." That is fine too.
And where are the pictures of meeting Thomas and Brian's grandparents? I am excited to post those...but to be honest...they need a bunch of post processing because it was the 1st time I took pictures in months. So some of them need cropping because the composition isn't great or they need some tweaking for color/brightness in photoshop because I didn't expose the frame right. SO there is a slight delay...but THEY ARE COMING! Here's one that I like right now:

Also, am going to post pics of Michael with the farm animals too from the Wilmington Flower Market. Just had to get this POSTED.

I like the bright cheery picture, because fairs make me happy, and I always love seeing your pictures! :o)
I can't believe how big Michael is getting; he really looks like a little boy now!!! A super adorable little boy! :o)
I like the bright and cheery one. Fitting for a carnival.
You remind me of pioneer woman, have you seen her website? http://thepioneerwoman.com/
I would lean toward the brighter one, but something about it leaves me wanting more. Maybe it's the fact I'm left wondering what the rest of the wheel looks like (even though I know it's identical to the part I can see). Maybe it's the super bright white clouds in the background. Was the sun behind the clouds? Did you take a shot from the other side, with the light shining directly onto the wheel? Either way, fun thoughts; thanks for sharing.
