Kansas State Fair

Back in September we went to the Kansas State Fair with Sky, Crystal, Ella, Jordyn, and Paityn. It was really fun! It was also kind of hard because we had gone as a family last year. It is disappointing that things that we did as a family will never be done as a family again. But friends are the family you choose, and we love Sky and Crystal and their girls!

We picked everyone up at Sky's house in my mom's minivan. Manuevering four carseats in to the van took us a little bit of work, but we made it. When we got to the fair, we saw some horse and buggy races first. The kids were really in to looking at the animals.

Then we went to the petting zoo. Each of the kids took a turn feeding the animals. The moms each took a turn freaking out about all the nasty germs that the animals were getting on our baby's hands!

The kids thought putting their faces in this cutout was fun. Crystal even got in on the action!

After the petting zoo we went through the different buildings and saw bunnies, cows, chickens, all kinds of animals. Then it was time for lunch. You'd think we'd have a Krispy Kreme burger or some other fair food, but Antonio and I had chicken and noodles. Yum! We did eat a fried fat ball and some deep fried oreos later though!

After lunch we went to a really great toddler play area.

Antonio also took a spin in one of the cozy coupe cars.

He even got his driver's license!

He took some time to do a little art too.

At some point we also saw Mickey and Minnie made out of produce. So exciting!

I insisted that we go to the Pig Races and it was a complete disaster. It was so hot and crowded. We had to wait forever for it to start and by that time, the babies were totally over it and we only saw one race.

I'm so glad to have Sky and Crystal. We always have a great time together and they've really been there for Antonio and I during this tough time.
