We went to the state fair for the first time this year. Well, Jeff and I went several years ago and basically left as soon as we got there. Too crowded and the people were pushy and rude. We had no desire to go back until we had kids, but couldn't go last year because of Ellen's arrival. So this year we made plans to go on Monday morning as soon as they opened. Every other day seemed like a bad idea - weekend, free can day, etc. We wanted to make it easy on ourselves. We planned it well because it was SO MUCH FUN! We went with the families of two of Lucas's buds from his old school. He loves Parker and Lincoln, and we love their parents, so it was a great time. We rode rides for awhile... which were so expensive, btw. We thought we'd buy 10 $1 tickets and that would be enough. The first ride the boys wanted to ride was this carousel, that was lame compared to Pullen Park, and it cost 3 tickets! And an adult had to ride with them, so make that $6 for one ride! I was shocked. Anway, after the rides we had lunch (picnic on the grass) and then saw the farm animals.
