The Fair

The fair. We have a love/hate relationship.

Loves:
*How close it is.
*Watching the girls on all the rides. Megan even had a wrist band and was able to dabble in a few rides this year. A big THANK YOU to Grandma and Grandpa for always being so generous and getting the bands for the girls. Plus, Kelsey tried out some big kid rides including the ferris wheel, airplane flying, tornado, and the big pirate ship. She even referred to some of her favorite rides from last year as "baby"rides.
*All the yummy food! Would you believe one of Kelsey's favorites this year was french fries with gravy and cheese curds? Weird, but delicious.
*The great entertainment!  We heard bands, watched puppet shows, piggy races, a lumberjack show, and especially some polkas :)
*Kelsey getting to play real restaurant by helping Grandma in the Elk's booth.
*We usually have a close place to park at Great-Grandpa's house.
*Seeing all the animals. The baby giraffe and baby kangaroos were adorable!
*Meeting up with tons of family and friends.


Not So Much Love:
*How much food I eat during the week! Oofda!
*To eat this deliciously bad for you food, we go through money rather quickly.
*Pushing the double stroller through the buildings. LOVE our stroller, not so much having to maneuver it through the crowds.
*It means summer is almost over :(

Ok, so I guess there is a lot more love than not. My girls do enjoy it very much. And me, too. We are pretty lucky to have it right here in our town and get to experience a lot at it.
