Fair Days

We spent Saturday and Sunday in Morris taking in the Stevens County Fair. This is an annual tradition for our family and it certainly gets more and more fun every year for us as Teague gets older and obviously enjoys it more! Nana bought him about 15 tickets for rides which I kind of laughed at because he was really more excited about going to see the animals (and if you notice in the pictures we were there 3 different times as you can tell by the 3 different outfits!). Nana is more concerned about keeping things "even" between all the grandkids and since the other grandkids got fair ride tickets, so does Teague! I was surprised that he liked the rides so much, when the only 4 he could go on do the same thing - go in circles up and down a semi incline/decline, one is a boat, one is a bugee, one is a motorcycle and one is a train. Good times. But obviously enough, the animals were his favorite as he woke earlier than normal at 7am this morning asking to see the animals. So we trudged back out there at 10:30am (basically the first people out there) to see all the animals (in the rain). He would get so excited about seeing the animals that he would just shake trying to decide which to see "FIRST!". He told us "SHEEP FIRST" before we got there, but really he saw the horses first since that was the first barn we came across. It was a great time, once again - next year bring on the fun with two kiddos!!

Holding the baby pig in the "kiddie barn" - not to be confused with "kitty barn" like Teague assumed!

LOVED the carousel!

"SHEEP FIRST!"

Loved being able to pet the VERY woolly black sheep.

Can you tell he's excited?!
