The County Fair

Our county prides itself on having the last county fair in the state, during the last full week of September. One of the favorite topics of conversation among the locals is crazy weather at the fair in past years. We were lucky this year and it was pretty good!
Grace couldn't go on many rides because of her size, but she loved the ones she could go on so much, how could we deny her?
I mean, seriously? We got this face on every ride. It was too cute.
Even if she wasn't screaming, she was loving the ride, this one with an affectionate hug.
Of course, we saw lots of animals.

Henry loved the baby animals tent.

And we got to explore various and sundry other agricultural pursuits, like natural pumpkin furniture.

The tractors were a big hit.
So was Ronald McDonald. I love that Grace still calls the restaurant "Old McDonald's" and this was just a "clown". After his little magic show, she ran up and gave him a big hug.

Ella says that too whenever we drive by a McDonald's - "Hey look Mom! An Old MacDonalds farm!"
