On Sunday, we went to the county fair. I thought Derek would love the animals after our recent outing to the zoo where he loved petting the goats. On the way to the animals, we saw tractors. Animals, who need animals? We have tractors. Big tractors, little tractors, but oh fun! Derek would run from one to another to sit on them. He kept saying that one Daddy that one. Can I buy this one? (Hmm 65000 may be out of our price range buddy). We did eventually see the goats and sheep which were just ok. The cows were big and a bit intimidating up close for D. We did find a reptile exhibit that Derek loved. They even had a snap snap (his word for alligators). Derek got to touch it! It was very exciting from the safety of Daddy's arms.
We ate a fair lunch of corn dogs. In the spirit of the fair we introduced Derek to the funnel cake. We had our yearly fried food experience and felt nauseous all afternoon. It was fun and worth it. The best part of lunch though was the big atvs bringing supplies. Derek would ooh and ahh over each one.
Will and Nate were a delight of course. They watched everything with big eyes from the stroller. They were not too sure about the animals.

Wow, corny dogs and alligators, was that the Everglades County Fair you went to? Very glad you all had a great time. Takes a while to get used to cows. Did you mention to Derek that is where ice cream comes from?
Help the Mossville economy ... buy a CAT tractor. Looks like a fun time!
