State Fair

We took Paige to the State Fair. Grandpa and Grandma and Aunt Myra kept Alaina for us, which was fabulous. The fair is the same as it's always been, only bigger and more expensive. It's fun to see it through Paige's eyes now. She was a trooper and did extremely well with the crowds and all the walking. We packed a lunch, so the only food purchase we made was a Dole Pineapple Whip we couldn't pass up. The last time we had one of those was at the Dole Plantation in Hawaii on our honeymoon. It was worth it!

I had to take a picture of this calf. It was so cute.

We did do a little splurging/spoiling that day. We let her get her face painted. She picked out the windmill.

Of course, Mark had to take Paige down the Giant Slide. I remember going down this as a kid, boy has inflatation affected the prices. They are making a killing on this old thing.


As you can see, Mark lost his cap.

And had to hold on to Paige. She is so light and determined to "do it mydelf".

I think they had a good time.

We had a great day and the highlight was going through the exotic petting zoo right before we left. The camels were totally obnoxious, and the goats tried to eat Mark's shirt.
