Fair Time

Yesterday Maya and I along with my extended family enjoyed 9 hours at the State Fair.  What did we do for 9 hours you may ask?  Well here you go:

• We ate corn dogs, cheese curds, mini donuts and drank multiple glasses of lemonade and smoothies. 
• We walked and walked and walked while visiting all the exhibition halls, animals, model homes, and RVs.  We even saw elephants!
• We rode multiple rides and got a lot of use out of midway super pass (me not so much as I got sick on ride #2)
• Admired the brand new grand stand which houses the many concerts during the 9 days of fair time.
• We sat, we laughed, we sweated in the hot humid air while hoping we didn't smell, and we enjoyed each other's company. 

At the end of the day, I would give the fair a sold "A".

Picture time - lots of pictures so watch out!

The kids are ready to hit the fair!
  
First ride of the day - fun house!  Of course it had a slide!
 
The kids enjoyed some mini rides as well

Caricature time for my brother and his family - the girls had to watch but then got distracted by the fair's mascot (can you blame them?)

Looks like my mother is having a great time herself!

Face painting - good thing it was free (it is a butterfly BTW)

Time to rest and people watch with Aunt Tori :)

Ferris Wheel time!
