Our State Fair is a Great State Fair

Last Saturday we headed out for a day of State Fair fun
It is the year of the pig and this fancy sculpture greeted us as we went in.
No one loves more animals at the Fair more than Annalise.
We observed a 12 hour old baby calf. It was so sweet and small.
Then we headed over to the tractors to get our yearly pictures. Let this be a reminder to you, Uncle Kevin and Aunt Becky. There's a theme....get to work.
Some one is getting too big for a tire. She sure is growing.
And Evie's yearly tractor picture....and that's when the camera battery died. Fortunately, we had the camera on the phone, but you have heard that story before. We still haven't figured out to get them off the phone. Sigh. I promise we will stop taking pictures until we get it figured out. The rest of the day was super fun. We saw lots of goats, cows, a cheese sculpture, giant pumpkins and bee hives. Evie rode some midway rides and did the ropes course that the boy scouts set up. Annalise took a nap in the Hort building and then started down the rough road of heat exhaustion. By the time we loaded up the car, she was in a pretty bad way and 5 miles from home she threw up. The good news is that she was in an old car seat and it was Jim's car with the leather seats so clean up was a snap. After a bottle of gatorade and a cool bath, she was back to normal.
