we'll be going to the state fair...see ya there!

today we went to the state fair with our neighbors, ryan and rebekah! we always go on the first sunday of the fair, because the gopher marching band plays that day and since thatcher was in the band in college, he likes to watch. well...we didn't check the schedule this time and they ended up switching the dates, so we didn't get to see the band. he was bummed. but we still had fun! :) 

here are ryan and rebekah chowing down on some corn

and thatcher and i...yum yum!

today's fare included: french fries, cajun fried pickles, corn on the cob, and a chocolate malt from the dairy building. mission accomplished! we also watched a logging competition and went to see the crop art that thatcher's sister entered. it was her first time and she did a great job!

it's a birthday present for their brother, pretty cool! 

o how i love the fair! my summer is officially complete!
