State Fair 2009

On Tuesday (Kid's Day), we headed out to (what we thought) our one day at the State Fair. The girls got to ride some rides, Caitlin checked out the farm animals, and mommy got to have a delicious Zucchini Weiney (A zucchini with a hot dog in the center and dipped in corn dog batter) mmmmm!

Delilah and Mommy checking out county exhibits.
Mommy and the older girls went on the Giant Wheel (the biggest fair ferris wheel)
Daddy sucked it up so that the girls could go on the tilt-a-whirl
The girls on the swings

Mikayla and Daddy

So after our long afternoon at the fair on Tuesday, we thought we were done, but a friend of ours gave us some unlimited ride wristbands and 2 free admissions to the fair so we HAD to go again! :-) (plus we had an extra one that I won off of Facebook). As we were walking into the fair, a lady offered us one of her tickets since her husband couldn't come - so we got all of us in for free. The girls had a blast riding every ride they could. They even went on some crazy spinning ride that I would have never went on (well maybe as a kid).

Big foot!!!
There was some wacky stuff at the fair this year... including walking peas.
The girls in front of the big candy mountain.
Delilah wasn't happy with the "smaller" swings... she had to go on the BIG swings (and as you see, Mikayla didn't!)
Caitlin's first pony ride and she LOVED it!
The owner of the fair rides bought a bunch of Neverland Ranch rides.
This is one that the girls are on...
The canoe ride the girls were forced to ride so Caitlin could go - but they loved it anyway.

The worm rollercoaster
The cool kite ride

This was the ride I would not have gone on... it spins in one area and the whole thing spins around and goes up and down and just way too much stuff going on! But the girls loved it.
A more calm ride - the helicopter
Riding the Lakers car.
The big slide - Mikayla takes the lead
We had a complete blast at the fair - we can't wait till next year!!
