fair time

so tonight brian and i made it to the virginia state fair, i haven't been to a fair in YEARS and was SO excited to go! when we arrived the smell of all the funnel cakes, turkey legs (ew), and fried deliciousness was so great (minus the turkey legs)...i had these high hopes of going on all the rides i went on when i was like 10, but sadly i am not the same person as i used to be!! the first ride we went on made us both SO sick, we never fully recovered from it! hahaha, the moment i got off i was soooo dizzy! i don't know about you, but i do not have the same stomach as i used to have :( which is very depressing!

although we were both nauseous for the whole 2 hours and then the thirty minute drive home, the night was beautiful and it was filled with lots of laughter which makes up for everything else.

here are some photos..
