The Fair!

We made it to the fair last weekend - I almost forgot all about it after all the Henry excitement! We went Friday night and started out with the trains, as usual:

I'd say that was definitely a highlight for Ben.

We did get to the bunnies and chicks, but somehow completely missed the big animal barns (I wasn't too broken up about that :) The kids had done much of the regular tour on their school field trip and were much more excited about getting to the rides. We bought a small roll of tickets and went to check them out.

We skipped that one :)

Love this pic!

Kayte had to miss out on most of the rides, so we did some games too. Will won a really loud obnoxious light-up gun, and that made his night.

Kayte took the younger kids through the mirror maze, and I was so busy trying to get a good shot of them, that Ben kept running into the glass at full-speed. Poor kid.

The grand finale is always an elephant ear with a side of the Kingpins, which is definitely one of my favorites.

Joe and I headed back to the fair the next day to sit at the Logos Booth and hand out balloons. We saw a lot of people we knew go by, and we spent 2 hole hours just hanging out, just the two of us in relative calm and quiet, which was the closest to a date that we've snuck in in the last couple of weeks. So that was fun too :)

I do love the fair-I cannot believe it has come and gone already and we are nearly into October!
