Fair Day!

We haven't been up to much lately around here. Just hanging back and enjoying the summer. One of the best ways to enjoy the end of summer here is to check out the state fair, which we have not done in a few years. It was Jefferson's first time, and we're pretty sure he loved it!

We saw plenty of all these fun animals.


Jefferson went "fishing" and picked out an adorable purple monkey for his prize.


We tried to see as many free shows as we could. One of them was "Zuma Zuma African Acrobats". Maybe you saw them on America's Got Talent? They were pretty awesome.


Hannah managed to handle herself around the stinkiness long enough to see some pigs. The babies were very cute.


And...Benjamin tried his hand at balloon darts to win himself an Angry Bird. He did pretty well, but daddy had to step in and help out at the end, the Angry Bird wasn't free you know...


We all had a great time, tried some yummy food: shrimp on a stick, corn dogs, grilled corn on the cob, fish lollipops, fudge, a burger on a glazed donut, and ice cream of course. It was such a good day, the kids are already planning their trip back next year!
