Buxton carnival day...

...is an annual event and this year was the 175th one! Noah had a go on the trampoline...

..we watched a warm up act in the bandstand while we were eating our BBQ hot dogs and burgers..

..and the boys found it really entertaining.

Noah had an 8 minute session on a huge inflatable slide. Jake was too young unfortunately. 

We joined the crowds for the parade.

We had ice cream!

Jake fell asleep...

We then watched the parade where there were loads of trucks!

..that woke Jake up. He really enjoyed it... once he had adjusted!

My arm was going dead so Adam became super Dad.

Next up was the fair ground rides, Noah went in a fire engine..

..and Jake was put in a car. It was his first time so we were unsure how he was going to react but he loved it!

We also bought a ticket for the duck race. I have no idea what place our duck came, we just know it wasn't first!

We came home around 4:45 but stayed out in our garden and could hear the live music while we were planting the plants we had bought from the Artisan Market which was being held down there.

Plus the weather was awesome.
