The State Fair

It's state fair time, and this year we got to take Christopher. Charlie and I packed LOTS of food for Christopher, (since he wouldn't be able to eat anything there), and we all hopped in the car. When we got there Christopher was very excited to see all the cars in the parking lot. I'm sure we could have left then and he would have been happy. The first thing we did was to "tag our tot". We left our names and phone number with the police just in case something happened to Christopher. Then we stopped to see some of the animals. Christopher got very excited to see all the "woof woof" s and "moo" s. Then we went to the McDonald Farm and got to harvest lots of different fruits and vegetables. Christopher liked watching all of the people going by. We ate some really good food. We had the best french fries and Christopher could eat them too! We also had an Indian Taco, some funnel cake, and roasted corn. All state fair musts.

We checked out the midway, but didn't ride anything, (Maybe next year when Christopher is bigger). Charlie played a dart game and won Christopher a bear. I played a little kiddie game and won Christopher a frog. Christopher enjoyed watching the model trains they had on display. When Christopher fell asleep, Charlie and I decided to check out the indoor exhibits. We saw some art work and got my ring cleaned for free. Yea! We all had a really great time. Christopher's favorite part was watching all the......yes that's right.......cars driving around.

(Look at all the little chicks.)

(Christopher really liked these "moos".)

("Look at the chickens Daddy!")

(Christopher and Mommy stop for a quick photo in a silo.)

(Christopher sure did "harvest" a good looking potatoe and bell pepper.)

(Daddy and Christopher take a time out from the trains to smile for the camera.)

(What a tired baby!)
