Strawberry Days

Saturday was a very good day. After coming in early from Dallas, TX that morning, Tay picked me up and we cruised home. I was so happy to be back in his arms. We were both absolutely exhausted when we got home and crashed. Yes, we took a nap. I can't even remember the last time we took a nap. It felt amazing! It's funny that one of the only times we can cuddle and actually fall asleep is when we are so exhausted and take a nap. I love it naps. 

Spontaneously that evening we were driving home from dinner in Lehi, and saw all the excitement from Strawberry Days. We thought, WHY NOT?! So we headed on over to the carnival and before we knew it we were hanging upside down on a ride that was brought in on a Semi! As I get older I begin to lose my trust about those rides. But Taylor's dreamy hazel eyes were just to hard to say no to. I drew the line on the roller coaster loopty loop one , but other than that... all the rides were fair game. We walked around hand in hand smelling in the fresh scent of summer. I can now say, I can knock getting a stuffed animal (from my lover) off the list. Taylor was quite the basketball player. 3 shots in the hoop. haha, it was quite easy, but hey I was flattered he won me a cute little bear. We named it Percy. 

I don't know what the name of the ride was but it's my absolute favorite. It's the one where you go inside the little globe, stand against the wall, then get spun around until you feel like your veins are going to burst out your neck. Sounds fun right? Taylor has never been on carnival ride period, so he was in for a treat. I think the funniest moment was looking over at him, as we were both pinned against the wall, and he just had tears flying out his eyes. I could not stop laughing. We definitely needed to take a breather after that one. So we decided to take a ride on the Farris Wheel. I absolutely love Farris Wheels, ever since I saw the movie Charlie when I was a little girl. There is just something about them that is so magical. So we cuddled up and saw the carnival from a whole different perspective, above the trees. 

This night was very much needed after being away from each other for a week. It was absolutely perfect.
