Fair Time

We finally heard about the County Fair before it happened and were even in town during its run! Our big plan was to head out early and beat the heat. Out early? Check. Beat the heat? Um, not so much. Tons of sunscreen? Check! I have mostly been to state fairs, and was surprised by the small size of this fair. It was good though, we were able to spend some time checking out the animals before going to the petting zoo. They had some crazy animals in the petting zoo. There were the typical pigs and goats, but they threw in a deer, a llama, and a wallaby! So, in the last couple of weeks, Alex has ridden a camel and the boys have pet a wallaby. Crazy!
After a lunch break Alex rode a bunch of rides. He is so brave, just climbs up and sits there like a big boy. On the last ride, I was a bit concerned he was going to fall asleep! In between rides, the boys tried their hands at some carny games. Zachary was so excited to win a "medium" lamb. When the lady held it up for him, he stared at it for a couple of seconds and then lunged out to hug it tight! So cute. The last stop was a carousel ride for Zachary. He had the biggest smile on his face for the whole ride.
