FAIR DAY!!!

It's that time of year again...time for the North Carolina State Fair! We went on Friday this year and spent the whole day there. Here's Nathan petting a baby duck..... Em loved the baby chicks!
The kids really enjoy the "Field of Dreams" exhibit, you travel through collecting fruits and vegetables and sell them in a pretend Famer's Market to earn "fair money".

Learning about NC agriculture....
Em learned how to milk a cow on this trip...Nathan did this last year but she wasn't quite ready to do it then. She was a pro at it, squirted milk everywhere!
"Smithfield the Painting Pig", yes you read that right...he's a pig that paints!
