Fun at the Fair

Oh, the fun we had at the fair. We ate - and ate. We tried the deep fried Oreos - don't knock them. I am now a believer. Along with the deep friend Oreos came cheese curds and blooming onions, corn dogs, funnel cakes, ice cream, popcorn, pizza, gyros and more. Yes, I did need some Tums. Here are the other highlights: The kids rode the ponies:

And rode the rides. The kids have waited all year to get on the Gravatron. Good times.

Bumper car fun

And last, but certainly not least, we won two gold fishes. I must say, the planets were aligned last night because we didn't win one, but TWO wonderful little fishies. I told the kids that if they lived through the night (which secretly I hoped wouldn't happen) we would go buy them a nice new home. So we now have two goldfish as pets. Should we start taking bets at how long they will last? My bet is by next week, we will be back to just having a dog.
