Grange Fair


This week was the Grange Fair. The Grange Fair is a very unique and very big fair that goes on every year. Everything revolves around this fair when it is going on, they even delay the start of the school year for the Grange Fair. There are miles of RVs and these old green army like tents set up that people live in for the week. There is a very, very long waiting list to get a tent spot, it is usually pasted on from generation to generation. It is a pretty crazy event.

Lucas and I went when they were having kids day, and I wanted Lucas to see the animals. We had a ton of fun!!! Lucas did not like Winnie the Pooh, the lady taking the picture told me he was the first kid to cry, but I am sure he was not the last.

They also put together this huge ice-cream sundae, it looked disgusting, they dumped tubs of chocolate syrup, maraschino cherries, and pineapple over this mound of ice cream, but it still tasted yummy!

They had a balloon man. It was pretty impressive the things he made out of balloons! Though Lucas was not interested and pretty much wandered around the entire time! We also were looking forward to seeing Buford the bear, but he had car trouble and didn't make it, so we went back the next day to see him and he was there but they were delayed in getting set up, so we never did see that darn old bear, I guess it just wasn't meant to be. We did get to see several animals, ducks, roosters, sheep, goats, pigs, and cows! Lucas loved this, at one point he was baa baa-ing like a sheep and then mooing! Cute!
