Kevin's favorite person at the fair, the miracle chopper guy in the Grandstand!



My favortie, Cheese Curds!



So tired...sweet, sleepy Leo

We took Leo to the MN State Fair today. It was his first time going to the Fair that Kevin and I have gone to nearly every year of our lives. We left early this morning to get there before the crowds and the heat. In previous years, we have spent the entire day at the fair, looking at the animals, eating, going on rides, eating, walking around, eating and going to shows while eating. Today we were on a mission to make the most out of the few hours we had until nap time. We saw a few animals, walked through the midway, did some people watching and ate the following: a footlong, mini doughnuts, cheese curds, Sweet Martha's and ice cold milk. Leo tasted all of the food we bought but preferred the applesauce and sandwich we brought for him. We walked around, went into the grandstand and took a few pictures. We left around noon when the sun was in full force and the people were entering by the 100's. Leo amazingly fell asleep within 3 minutes of leaving the fair grounds (he never sleeps in the car) and even transferred to his crib and took a 2 hour nap!!! I think the fair wore him out!
