Friday

Hannah made breakfast again today. She cracked 2 eggs and poured in a lot of milk. She mixed them up, put them in the pan and cooked them up. She plated them and ate them all. She wanted more so she made 2 more eggs for herself and ate them all up too. Ben made himself some toast with peanut butter and Noah wanted to help make him some eggs, but he got to close to the pan and burnt his finger. His world shattered and he was so sad. Daddy finished making his eggs.

We went to the fair today. We didn't go on any rides, we are saving that for our next trip in a couple of weeks. We went and saw someone practicing for the horse show. The kids really wanted to stay and watch but there's so much to see at the fair!

We watched the pig races, so funny. They raced around the track to get to the Oreo cookie at the end. Some of the pigs didn't race, but sauntered to the end and had to be encouraged to go. One little pig was put into a trough to swim the length, it squealed and squealed. It swam the length and was put into a little towel to dry off afterwards. It was so cute.

We checked out the goats, the sheep, the chickens, the pigs and the cows. We found all of the animals who won ribbons. They watched Charlotte's Web last night so they had a better understanding of the blue ribbons and the fair. 

We watched a cow milking demo and Ben and Hannah wanted to try hand milking the cow but they volunteered a couple of minutes too late. Maybe we'll try next time we go.

We found the sports section and the kids got to try a horse racing video game, a little miniature golf and they pretended to be the winners of the Olympics. See our main family blog for pictures.

We watched the judging of some heifers and saw them awarded with blue ribbons while we took a break and had a snack.

Next time we go... we'll do rides too.
