The Indiana State Fair

We had a great day at the fair with our friend Anne, who due to her work with the State Fair Commission (on behalf of the Gov) gets a specially embroidered shirt with her name on it -- whihc is red this year in honor of the Year of the Tomato at the Fair! So many things to love about the fair: food, little hands on the farm, animals, rides, etc. Love the fair!!!!

One thing I didn't take pictures of...long story...was the Peking Acrobat show. It was absolutely amazing!!!



So lucky to get a PINK tractor!


Things from the farm: wool, apple, onion, egg, corn, etc.

Milking the cow -- always the coolest part!


Feeding the HUNGRY (of course!) goats


This fishing thing was a big hit -- we stayed here for a long time



There were some HUGE tractors at the fair -- this wasn't even the biggest one!


Starbucks, the pony Rachel Claire got to ride



Oh the baby pigs!


The carousel and amazingly the ferris wheel were big favorites!


Hard to take photos while making sure small child wasn't hanging on/outside the basket!
