I was given a new lens for my birthday/graduation gift and this was my first time taking it out.  I love it.  We got to the Strawberry Days Carnival a little late tonight and it was over cast but you can’t even tell that there was almost no light left on these first couple of pictures I took as we were walking over to the rides.  Lulu was so cute watching all of the lights.  I was really grateful that Koa came out and did this with us even though it was cold and sprinkling.   Last year Koa, Kawika and I went to the carnival then over to the rodeo… I was a little too sick and pregnant to stomach the twirl a hurl rides a year ago…. I think I may be getting a little too old for the rides… I could hardly handle the Merry-Go-Round tonight.  I think I will put up some of those pictures of the boys from last year if I can find them on my computer…. so stay tuned for those.
