State Fair

We took the kids out to the state fair for a couple of hours last night. Chase decided to hop on a horse within five minutes of getting there. He's getting braver - when he wants to be!He only let Dave hold on for a second and then he said, "no dada, my do it myself" and if you are around Chase for any time at all you know this is his new line for everything!Nothing says state fair like eating a hamburger from a hamburger.
Chase checked out the map while we were eating to see where to head next.
We went to the baby animal tent and spent most of our time there.
This is the cow that nearly took off Dave's finger - so he would say! My fault of course, but the cow was eating the stroller and when I moved it the cow pulled his head back through the gate pinning Dave's finger in the process. He's ok.
Taylor would seriously get in with the animals if we let her.
She would also have high-tailed it crawling across cow doo on the floor to get from animal to animal if you didn't catch her quick enough!
Little pigs are cute. Big ones, not so much.
A classic fair souvenir for the walk back to the car.

Ditching the toy for chocolate ice cream - that's my boy.

poor dave, his recollection of events sounds a bit like brett's. i think he has taken over my (our) family tradition of exaggeration, but only as it applies to himself. the rest sounds fun, though! love your quips!

Heather, no one, I repeat no one can overtake you in the exaggeration department. Need we talk about the bike ride....exactly!
