Umatilla County Fair

It has been a couple of years since we have gone to the fair.  Will didn't really want to go so he agreed to watch the two youngest and the rest of us had a grand girls adventure.  It was lots of fun.

Looking at some of the booths.  This toy booth was loved.

We found one vendor with lots of shiny rocks.  I let the girls each pick one.

Showing off their rocks.  I bought one for me too.  I think it is a fun way to remember our day.

There were some cool animals to see.  Wild animals.  We saw a tiger and a lynx and some more.  I liked the Geoffrey's Cat.  It was much more active than the other animals and fun to watch.

We went in the building to admire all the artwork.  The girls were impressed that little kids could show exhibits.

Admiring the lego creations.  Whitney has decided she wants to make one next year for the fair.

We got to watch the ending of the cutest baby contest.  There were a lot of adorable babies in the running so I don't know how they picked.

This was probably everyone's favorite part - the magic show.  The kids got to come up close and participate in the show.  He mostly did entertaining card tricks and stuff. 

There was a becoming a farmer exhibit. 

Whitney gets to milk a cow.  Real water came out when you did it correctly.

Rachel and Megan out collecting eggs from the chickens.

And you can't leave the fair without eating a giant elephant ear.  We ran into one of my friend's while wandering around and she told us which booth had the best elephant ear.  It ended up being super yummy.

So good times were had by all at the fair.  Maybe I will be brave enough to take all the kids next year.
