The County Fair

Every year, going to the California State Fair is such a highlight for our family.  The kids LOVE it!  So this year, we thought we'd hit up the County Fair as well.  It was pretty much the same thing... but smaller.  We started our day looking at the animals entered by the 4H kids for judging.  The rabbits were a HUGE hit with our kids.


Then it was off to the petting zoo.  I thought the price had gone up and was a little pricey for our family of five at $3 each, but the kids always enjoy it so much that it was impossible to say "no".


Then it was off to check out the exhibits.  I particularly wanted to check out the photography exhibits because I had kicked around the thought of entering (although I never found time).  Garrett was not as thrilled with looking at pictures and preferred making giant bubbles....


Then it was lunch time.  Way cheaper (and healthier) to pack a lunch than buy fair food.  Although I must admit that the fair food was tempting us...


The day ended by partaking in a handful of fair rides. Garrett and Paige were finally tall enough to ride some of them and Molly enjoyed showing them the ropes.  She's such a helpful big sister!
