we enjoyed an evening at the county fair

we worked really hard while putting the new roof on our house, so we were especially looking forward to relaxing at the county fair for an evening.


it's fun to take the whole gang and go see all the sights: animals, quilts, people and food!

the baby goats were both curious and friendly.



looks like this one would like to sample the juice from A's cup!




baby B is so much like her daddy. she was almost mesmerized by this tractor, and was fascinated by the tire!




this is the tractor that I want! how much easier it would be to keep my garden weeded and under control! (and how much fun would it be to drive a cool little tractor like that?!)




a trip to the fair would just not be complete without the required dosage of cotton candy. B was intrigued with how it just melted away in her mouth.

we were so pleased to see that both our Yukon Gold and Red Pontiac potatoes received first place! now we can honestly advertise at our produce stand that we have the best potatoes in Bradford county!

i entered 8 things in the home arts section of the fair, and 7 of them received a ribbon. i was disappointed to not have received any blue ribbons for first place, but then there's always next year!

Congrats on the Potatoes!
This was our first year NOT going to the Troy Fair. A lot of Nick's family had animals there, but we were so busy, we ended up not going.

It looks like you had lots of fun!
