County Fair

Friday we went to the county fair.  This was your typical rural county fair, I think.  No rides, lots of livestock.  Here's the photo highlight reel...

Dressed appropriately in cowgirl boots. Piper's were pink.
Want to cheer up every oldtimer at the fair?  Put a baby in pink cowboy boots.

Giant shopping cart.  Support NC agriculture, y'all.

Petting a sheep,

Piper contemplates the pigs. 

Oink, oink.

Cadence said the goats were her favorite.

Piper liked the goats too.  Their ears were soft.

Bunnies!

Racecar.  On display from the local arcade.

I don't know why that pumpkin has a blue ribbon that says "church", but this is the Bible belt.

Cadence spontaneously felt the need to hug this giant pumpkin.

She looks good driving a tractor, huh?

So apparently there are people who collect vintage tractors, like vintage cars.  Who knew?
Cadence loved the fair - she asked to go back today, but I told her we could come back next year.  Piper is usually happy anywhere there's lots of people and things to see.  Wait, she was not a fan of the chickens.  I think their squawking scared her.    I got to eat kettle corn and admission was free, so I was pleased with the whole outing.

No wonder our big girl wanted to go back again the next day--it looks like so much fun for you all. (except maybe the chickens!). Thanks for sharing the pictures and your great commentary! Love, Mom
