Best fair day ever!

You just can't go wrong with the fair. Junk food, mullets, shows, Freddie the KSF mascot, and music at the Bud tent, you gotta love it. As Mom and I was getting the kids ready. I looked through Victoria's closet trying to find something for her to wear that she would be easily found in. Mom suggested, teasingly, that she should wear her sequined shirt in her dress up clothes. Mom got this obnoxious shirt that is covered in sequins at a yard sale for I believe 50 cents. We decided why not?! It IS the fair and people will be dressed in worse. It was hard to look directly at her when we got outside in the sun though. Here are some pics of our day.


Vicotria adored her pink elephant named Nikki after her cousin. Grandma threw the ball that landed in her color square. How special is that?

Anthony checking out the rabbits.


Addison checking out the back of her eyelids.

My favorite! watching the chickens hatching.



Me with the kids standing next to Freddie. He has been a fair exhibit for over 50 years.
Addison is still thrilled as you can tell.


Victoria got excited and talked about her friend Davis when she saw Curious George.


Great opportunity to have a positive experience with a cop at the fair. I was so proud of her to take a picture with one.



The puppet show was Vicotria's favorite part of the fair. The puppet called her out of the crowd to help with the show. You think it had anything to do with the shirt?


Victoria riding her bike with the kids in through the little town that was set up to teach safety. They even made her a driver's license.



Checking out the fish tanks. This one was really cool filled with huge chunks of glass.


What a beautiful day for the Kentucky State Fair! The weather was perfect, not too hot. Victoria got some money from Mamaw and we used it for a bracelet for her to ride rides. She rode to her hearts content. We got there at 11 and left at 9:30. We could barely walk to the car but laughed and had a ball all day long. The kids were incredible especially the babies that were in the stroller for 10 hours. I couldn't of asked for better kids.

Your "george" comment made me smile! Tell Victoria "Hi" for Davis!
