State Fair!

We went to the Missouri State Fair today...it sure was hot!!! We tried to get there early...by 10:30am, but it was still 95 degrees. By the middle of the day it was over 100 heat index. We still had a good time though. This is the boys going on a little roller coaster. I think it is the only ride Brody did...he is a little more cautious. Thats OK, I needed someone to hang out with!!
Even though you really only see Eric and Mason...Taylor is in there too!! It was hard to get a good picture...they were so high up!! Brody and I watched from below and it made him a little nervous seeing them up there!
This is one of those "tornado" type rides that spins you around faster and faster. This was Mason's idea actually and when he got off he said "that was the best one yet!" I sure hope Eric has a few more years of these kinds of rides in him cause I am not going to be any help!!
We also saw the animals of course...horses, cows, pigs, chickens, etc. Almost like being at home!! We enjoyed all the great "Fair Food"...hot dogs, snow cones, funnel cakes, fresh lemonade. It was a long, hot day but it isnt summer without a trip to the State Fair!!

Looks like a blast - even tho it was so toasty! Brings back memories and makes me excited to be able to bring our kids again someday. Maybe we can bring our kids together! :)
