state fair

Quinn took the day off of work today and we headed out to the State Fair. Our first stop was the petting zoo. Asher screamed with delight at the animals but wouldn't pet them. 




We had fun walking around and checking out all of the food. Seriously, you could spend forever at the fair just eating. Everything looked so delish.  We played a few games. Quinn missed.


I didn't.


Finally, it was time to eat. Asher started with a corn dog.



I stuck with a lemonade and sweet potato fries. Quinn had the Krispy Kreme burger which is exactly like it sounds.

Can you imagine the calories?


Asher got his hammering on in a toddler section.

He also got his driving on.

We checked out the livestock. Saw tons of cows, pigs, poultry, etc...We saw a lot of prize winning produce, sampled delicious cheese and BBQ sauces and just generally had fun doing fair stuff.  Then it was time for dessert.


Asher really enjoyed his ice cream. Quinn and I shared a funnel cake.



To end the day we took Asher on the carousel. At first he seemed to like it but about half way through he wanted off.  All in all it was a great day at the fair.

I chuckled so much at the photos of Asher; first, wearing the sunglasses, then chowing on the corn dog, and finally savoring totally the ice cream. The older he gets the more he is "Little Quinny". It is hilarious.

And way to go Annie Oakley, beating the old man at marksmanship. Looks like a fabulous day together.

That burger looks like a heart attack waiting to happen! Personally, I never mix my donuts with beef.
