MN State Fair

I do love the MN State Fair!  I look forward to it every year at the end of the summer.  Unfortunately, our weather did not cooperate this year on the day that we decided to go.  We had a short amount of time with sunshine and no rain, so we made the best of it :) 

Here are my little Gopher hockey players, all suited up!

Sweet Martha's Cookies are definitely a MUST at the fair.  We stood in the rain and chowed these babies down before heading home for the morning!

The BIG slide was closed down because of the rain, bummer.  He's still all smiles though :) 

Henry got one ride in before the rain started and they had to shut them down - he chose Monster Trucks, of course!

My favorite thing to do at the fair - Little Farm Hands :)  

They fed the chickens, gathered eggs, picked apples, planted vegetable seeds, and milked a cow!

Gotta drive that tractor around the farm :)

Lydia made it - taller than 2 chickens this year, yay!

The Alphabet Forest - another of my favorites at the fair.  There are so many "letter" themed activities  in this area for the kids to do.  

Here we are, on the bus back to our car, sad that we had to leave early because of the rain.  Lydia almost has that pouty face going with us :)
