Last year we saw the Fresh Beat Band at the Fair and we enjoyed some rides too it was a blast.
A butterfly from the butterfly garden being on the back of me while I was walking around the other booths…. Especially when I didn’t even go into the butterfly garden! So that was pretty crazy, crazy awesome at least 🙂
Hi Chau, I think that is one of my favorite spots at the OC Fair. The butterfly garden is a fantastic experience for any age.
Actually, the first time I went to the OC Fair was last year. It was soooo fun. The best part was seeing my oldest niece experience a ferris wheel for the first time. She had the best time!
Dinah, how fun. I am not a fan of ferris wheels, so props to her for taking that leap!
My favorite family moment at the fair is when my son came in first place in the pie eating contest.
Alex, that is amazing! Congrats to your son!
We have never been but am looking forward to sharing some great memories
Watching my girls when there were little, sitting side by side on the huge slides, never seen them laugh so hard together, those treasured moments of sisters!!!
My fave memory is the first time I went with my hubby as a couple. It was nice to finally to go to the fair with a guy. 🙂
I remember riding the ferris wheel where I first learned that my dad was scared of heights hehe
I have never been, but would love to visit
We havent been to the fair in a few years, but can’t wait to go and try out all the exotic food. My boys love all the rides. I really like your new name “balancing the chaos”.
Hi Shannon, Thanks so much for the love on the new name. I’m loving it too! It just fits our current lifestyle. Hope all is well with you. And thanks for your continued support.
Our favorite is watching the demolition derby and seeing all the animals.
