Last weekend we took the Wardlings to the state fair. Oh the fun we had. We saw animals, ate, watched bees make honey, ate, fished, ate, and so forth. Just outside the dairy goat barn, there was a hand washing center. Penny loved the "widdle, widdle" sink, because it was "so tute."
We really like the goat barn. I reminded me of growing up. My family had goats for years.
As we were walking into buildings looking @ the prize winning quilts, projects, getting all stickered up from the Pro-life booth, we were stopped by some rangers to invite the Wardlings to go fishing. They all had fun catching these fish. On the back of the fish were the names of some state parks.
Just one of our babies. 
And of us as we were leaving. We got to the Fair early, by 9:30am. By the time we left the fair, hundreds of people were crossing the street to wait in line to get in.
Here we are checking out the prize winning watermelon that Grammy told us about.
As I said we did alot of eating. Everyone loved the funnel cakes.
In one of the buildings there were the magnets and metal posters of Penny's favorite film, "The Wizard of Oz." Had they not been so pricey I would have been glad to have purchased one for her. As it was we found another vendor who was selling the Witch, the Tin Man, the Scarecrow, and the Cowardly Lion for cheaper. P chose the Scarecrow stuffed doll. She was thrilled.
When we first walked into the fair there were competitive exhibits from the book, 'Where the Wild Things Are.' My wee men were excited to see if because the movie was fresh in their minds. As a matter of fact, P loves the book, along with the film. She even slept with it last night. "Let the rumpus begin!!"
Fun was had by all. Goodbye State Fair, our friend...until next year.
