First Day of Summer/Rockford Fair

Yesterday was Bella (11) and Aidan (10)'s first day of summer.  We spent it drinking tea, playing Life, Sorry, watching a little Casey Anthony and attending the carnival in Rockford.

The carnival was a great way to kick off summer and especially to spend time with friends, Scott and Charity.  Bella was payed a dollar for not screaming the entire time on the boat ride and we also spent an hour explaining centrifical force to Aidan before he very unwillingly rode a standing up, spinning ride.  He very much enjoyed it and wanted to do it over and over again.

And on the way home we experienced this gem of a conversation:

Me - I think she's just shy.
Bella - I'm not shy.
Aidan - I'm a little shy.
Bella - Shy...that's a weird word, shy....what does shy mean?
Me - did you say it too much?
Bella - yeah
