STATE FAIR = TRACTORS, RIDES, ANIMALS, AND SUGAR!!!

Keeping with the traditions that we started our first year in Colorado, we headed down to the state fair one Sunday morning. Arriving just as the gates were to open....Mommy hoping to avoid the crowds and the need to find something to eat at the fair. This year was full of lots of fun!!!

Learning how to rope some cattle will come in handy on Monday at preschool!!!

William and Daddy enjoyed the petting zoo. He was not to sure about the goats and the bunnies but William loved, loved, loved the piglets.

And of course there is always the need to climb on the tractors and the diggers.

When it was time to go to pick out the rides.... William'a first choice should be no surprise to anyone.... It was the FIRETRUCK!!!!!

The second ride of choice was the helicopter. Once William figured out how to go up and down by pressing a button, he went up, down, up, down, and up......

SURPRISE!!! WILLIAM WANTED TO RIDE A TRAIN (in

fact the guy let him ride this without a token....There are still people that do know how to make a kid's day)
