Friday: Fair Day

Today we went to our local fair.  The Scouts started the fair opening with a flag ceremony.  And I was the only leader in uniform!  Luckily I didn't have to haul E through D up with me.

The fair was very small.  I blew $8:50 on dumb games and inflatable slides.  The best part of the fair was free!

Watching fellow Scouts in a pie eating contest:

"Are you sure you don't want to be in the pie eating contest?"
"No Mom!  I just got my face painted!"
"Mom, I'm hungry!"
"You should have been in the pie eating contest!"

And what is a local fair without a petting zoo?

Chickens: What, we don't have enough at home?

Pigs: For sale when big enough to butcher

Goats: "Are these your next venture?"  In three years!
