MN State Fair

Last Wednesday, we lucked out and picked the "coolest" day/morning of the week to go out to the State Fair - we had an hour of clouds right away and it probably only got up to 95 degrees that day (my swollen feet were very happy)!

We hit up the usual suspects - The Little Farm Hands, tractors/mowers/any type of machine, The Miracle of Birth Center, a few rides, the Lego center, and then we finished the morning with a few treats, of course.

First up, The Little Farm Hands exhibit - Henry had to drive a tractor.....

.....pick up some corn to feed the chickens and sheep, grab an egg.....

.....pick an apple, milk a cow, and plant some seeds - whew, busy morning!  After all his hard work, they gave him his "pay" - his choices were a juice box, a stuffed animal, or some ice cream.  Ice cream it was!

He and Dad braved the BIG slide - oh man was he a BIG fan!

Henry picked 2 rides - the cars and the tractors.  He said his car went the fastest of all of them and his tractor had the loudest horn!

My go-to fair food - the cheese curds and Sweet Martha's cookies.  Delicious as always, they certainly didn't disappoint!

Henry's Kettle Korn shop wasn't open yet when we walked by, but I'm sure that Henry makes a mean kettle korn :)
