Take me to the Fair!!!

No, we didn't see Oprah, but yes, we did have a funnel cake, and it was so goooooood!!!
We also tried the fried butter, but it's really just a little bit of butter, wrapped in a biscuit and the biscuit is fried. It was ok, but I wouldn't eat it again. Saving my money next time for some cotton candy!

If you haven't guessed by now, we took Cody to the state fair Monday since we didn't have school. There were so many people there, but we had a great time! We got there at 10:00 a.m., didn't leave until after 6:00 p.m. and walked about 7 miles!! (I think we got our activity points for the day. I know this because I wore my pedometer!!)

Here are just a few of the things that went on that day:
Cody checked out the Air Force plane. Cody goofed around on a scooter.

We rode the sky-tram and that was pretty cool!!!



A bird landed on Cody's arm and took his money, then gave it back, then took it again, then gave it back, and so on.... He was actually supposed to take the money and put it in the box, but I guess he thought Cody needed to hang on to it. The bird did finally decide to keep it after about 6 tries. That was neat!



And this bird almost took my head off as he was flying back to the stage. That is almost a little too up close and personal for me! It was an amazing bird though.



We really did have a fun day, and I can't wait until next year to do it all over again! Well, maybe not the fried butter part, but maybe some fried cookie dough instead!!!!
