State Fair 2013

We went to the fair this year on Monday, October 7.  We went on the actual school district holiday since Talan is in school now. We were missing a couple of our usual people but we took a few new friends this year.  Karli, Brayden and Baylee came along.  I thought it would be nice for Talan and Kendall to have someone their age to ride the rides with this time.  I am sure Estevan appreciated it as well..... We rode the train down because it is just easier than finding a place to park and walking.
Once we got inside we first had to have a Fletcher's corny dog.  It was good as usual.  We walked through a couple of the booths with different venders.  Then we made our way to the midway for the kids.  They had a blast riding all the rides.  Talan and Kendall are not scared of much.  We put Brayden, Talan, and Baylee on the Lovebug......that was hilarious.  Poor Brayden was being squished by Talan and Baylee and just didn't seem to enjoy that ride. 
We tried the fried mashed potatoes (my favorite this year), fried cheeseburger ball, fried avocado loaded fries, fried queso, fried snickers, fried oreo and bacon wrapped cinnamon roll (yum).  The good thing about going with multiple people is everyone can buy something and everyone tries it.  If you like it, you buy more.  If you don't like something, you didn't just waste a ton of money.  We ended our evening checking out the cars and having some hersey's chocolate ice cream on a cone.
We headed home about 6 to get the kids home in time for bath and bedtime.  When we got back to our cars, Karli put the keys in the ignition of her truck and somehow the door shut and latched while she was getting the kids.  Locked out!!!! So, we waited with them while Jonathan brought the extra keys up to her. 
We had a great time with great friends.  It was an exhausting day, but it only comes once a year.
