State Fair!

Megan and I took the kids to the state fair yesterday and they had a blast! We went to the petting zoo, to ride the ponies, and to the kids play area. And of course the best part of the fair is the FOOD! I finally got Alex to try some funnel cake and he and Aurora went to town on one! Alex was not too sure about the petting zoo and ponies - I think it has to do with all of the animals being much bigger than him! He would hold the food cup out as far as he could to the goats so he didn't have to get close to them, and he made me pick him up! You can see from some of the pictures below from the look on his face he just wasn't sure about them. They did have a baby buffalo which I though was cool. We also tried to put Alex on a pony...he was okay for about 30 seconds and then started crying lol! Aurora is an old pro and loved riding the ponies. She keeps asking to ride a horse, I'll have to look into that. Anyway we all had a great time, I love this time of year! Stay tuned for the International Balloon Fiesta in 2 weeks!
