Easter Carnival at the Park

Our friends invited us to a fun little Easter carnival in Peoria, and as soon as Madelyn heard there would be fire trucks and bouncy houses, she was all in! 

It was an absolutely beautiful day for the carnival. The sky was a bit overcast and the high was about 80. As we were pulling up to the park, the fire truck pulled in right behind us. Madelyn was practically out of her car seat before I could even get her unbuckled. However, once we walked up to the firetruck, and the fireman greeted her, she wanted nothing to do with it. Seriously, child. Firemen. I wanted to ask her if she was really my child. ;) We decided not to push the issue, and would come back after she'd had some time to get acquainted with everyone.

She spent most of her time jumping in both the bouncy castle and the bouncy house. We all wondered if she'd ever get tired because we were exhausted just watching her!


She also got her very first "tattoo" which was quite exciting for her. "Look, Daddy! We match!" Oh boy...


She also got her face painted... one of her very favorite past times (ever since Legoland).


And of course, we did finally make it back to the fire truck, thanks to "New" Allison.


It was a great way to get ready for our other Easter celebrations. A big thanks to the McClellens for inviting us! :)
