State Fair 2011

This week Samantha and I as well as her family went to the State Fair. 


It has been quite a few years since any of us had been to state fair. But was a lot of fun. As a kid I (Adam) used to love riding the rides, but now that I'm older I have learned to appreciate the other aspects of the fair. We had a lot of fun just walking around and looking at the exhibits and booths.


This year, on display were several of the surrounding Fire Departments fire engines.
We couldn't help but take a picture, infront of the Sandoval County Fire Department.



Look a real life cow-milking session!
:-)


One of the coolest parts of the fair was this tent. In this tent there were all sorts of educational games.


How long can you hang?

Can you tell what scent is in the bottle?

Try and move the wand around the metal track without touching the sides.
It's harder than it looks!


Nothing like freshly squeezed lemonade!

While we were walking around two ladies asked Samantha to watch their children so they could go on a ride.
We were pretty surprised by their request, but we agreed.



At last we made it to the best part of the Fair, the food!!
Turkey leg... anyone?
More yummy goodness....

Amazing arts and crafts

All in all we had a blast and cant wait till next year.

  1. Looks like LOTS of fun! My church gets to go to a state fair this year and help an evangelist pass out tracks, so I am SO excited. Thanks for sharing!

    And you're right, that was an odd request for the lady at the fair to make. People are so "interesting" in the day that we live in. lol.

    In Christ,
    Rebecca
