The boys really look forward to the fair each year. This year M even did some watercolors of a horse and a cow to enter, but we found out he was too young. He wants to try next year, and they both want to enter the stick horse racing in the Jr. rodeo. E was very brave, electing to touch a snake in the science tent, brush a large cow, and pet a variety of animals. M needed a nap he didn't get, so was the ornery pony rider and reluctant to interact with any animal. The food, as always, was a hit with everyone, and the rodeo was very entertaining. (Especially E's 2 side shows he put on by getting his leg stuck in the seat and screaming bloody murder.) I think the alligator show would have been better received if it wasn't in full sun during the hottest part of the day, but it was pretty good. The balloon weapons were very much enjoyed until the crazy dust storm blew them away and pretty much made us leave. All in all it was a good time for the price of $1 for parking. The boys CAN'T WAIT for the state fair next month, they are already talking about it. I wonder how much fun all that walking will be for me by then (37 weeks) I guess we'll find out!

I love the pictures. It makes me wish we had been feeling better so we could have joined you. Maybe for the state fair.
