State Fair

Last night we attended the state fair.  We had lots of fun seeing all the animals.  Ava was a little disappointed she could not see any horses, but both Ava and Alex liked the baby chicks, sheep, cows, and pigs.  We enjoyed corn on the cob, pork sandwiches, cotton candy, and tried the fried Derby Pie, which was pretty good!  We also liked the balloon exhibit, this year's theme was the Jungle. 
Alex won three little stuffed animals from the duck pond game and Ava won a big blow up dolphin from the go fishing game.  Both were satisfied with their prizes.  By far the kids loved riding the rides the best.  I feel like kids as young as two and three should have a little more fear when it comes to rides, but mine wanted to ride them all including the big ferris wheel and all the adult rides! 
I wish the night ended as great as it started.  We were stuck in traffic leaving the fair for 2 hours and 15minuets!!  So I let the kids sit up front with me while we just sat and sat and sat trying to get out of the fair parking lot, until eventually they fell asleep and I put them back in their car seats.

This is what we raced by so we could avoid the "I want one"







My kids loved the ferris wheel ride!


Thrill seeker!




Same goofy expression.




I used lots of wipes to clean this up
