The Fair!

Popcorn! Peanuts! Fried Coke!

Fried Coke?

Yes. Fried coke was the newest "fried" offering at the Arkansas State Fair this year. We didn't try it. I tried a fried snickers a couple of years ago, and it was ok. Not great, though. Definitely better things that should be fried than candy bars.

This past Saturday, Jim and I took our girls and Grandmother to the Arkansas State Fair. We all had so much fun! We got to ride rides, eat gyros, corn dogs, and ice cream, and see lots of interesting crafts and exhibits. The girls got some instruction in how to handle the "games" and "carnies".

Since a picture is worth 1000 words, I will shut up for now and just show you some of our fun!

Smiling Beta on the merry go round!








Smiling (and waving!) Alpha on the merry go round!








A kiddie dragon roller coaster. This was the girls' favorite ride! Beta got off and said it was fun and scary!








A cool hot-air balloon ride. They worked together to spin the basket.







I'm working on a video from the fair. I'll try to have it posted in the next day or two.

I tried importing them into iphoto and they won't go! It says they're the wrong format or something.

HA!

Can't you just save them to your computer? And, then copy them over?
