Fair: Theme Thursday

























A double whammy this week. The ubiquitous 'merry go round' as we call them here. These pictures were taken four years and 12,000 miles apart. I am a little concerned as to what the Baby Angel is doing with the horse's posterior in the first shot:-D. I really hope she is just stroking the horsehair tail. (as you do!)

For more Fair Dealings, check out Picture This!

And if anyone can tell me why my text is underlining itself...

Oh, I love "same kid, same pose, years apart". How fun! Carousels rule, too! Great pics:)

haha funny, looks like she's goosing him. They never tire of carousels!

I really like the colors in this picture! (and if it's any consolation, I didn't notice where her hands were until you mentioned it) :)

What a beautiful way to show how grownup she is! Great photos!

Sorry, wish I could help with the underlining, I'm a wordpress user!

How amazing to look back through time like that...I know I will blink twice and my Angel Baby will be that size!

I love those shots! Isn't it amazing how much they change in such a brief moment?

Merry go rounds are wonderful. She is looking so grown up in the second picture!! Time goes by so fast.

I'm no help on the underlining thing...sorry

I love her pose on the second one. Looks like she's modeling.

I don't have answer as to why Blogger sometimes underlines. But I do know that if you just move the cursor and try to write someplace else, like a few lines down, no underlines.

Look at those carousel horses. That makes me want to go to our local zoo and hop on the carousel there!

And what an awesome idea to show the two photos- I love it! :)


(Thanks for the parenting award... haha. I think all parents deserve awards- I'm finally realizing exactly what my parents went through and it makes me appreciate them so much more!)

Love both pictures! It's so great to have the comparison... so much growing in 4 years!

In my "fair" photo with the ducks... I think they just had you choose 3 ducks because the cost to play was ridiculous... and then they looked at the bottoms and whichever duck had the "best" prize number was the one you won.

I like your photos, too! I also love the same kid, different year take on it. :-) She is quite fair-skinned.

I am really fair, but I have not had any cancers or pre-cancers on me anywhere.

I forgot to reply to you in time this week to tell you about Friday's Feast. I left a link on my Friday's Feast post this week.
