NW Michigan Fair- 8/2013

We didn't spend as much time at the fair this year as we usually do-  there was a lot of miscommunication or poor advertising or something- so we didn't know what night was Family Night where kids ride for a dollar.  And they didn't have the rides open yet on the day we did go.  Not sure what was up with all that this year. 

But we did go- and had some food and saw animals.  And that made him happy- he had a good time!  As you will see- he was still pretty into the bunnies. And ducks.  And tractors.

This was a huge tractor that was right in the entrance 

Then he got super excited about the cement mixer... and he was pointing to the cylinder part telling us that's where it turns to mix the cement....

And then (going around to the back)... he comes out this chute! 

Above-  he was more interested in the water running through the grass than seeing whatever animal section we were in at the time.  He loves motion. 

We usually check out the sheep because the Ansorges have always had one there

Then.... into the Rabbit Barn!

He loves the bunnies 

and was very interested in watching the ducks for a long time

...... then of course we absolutely MUST have lemonade!  

and hot dogs.  And Gibby's fries! yumm! 

more big tractors and farm equipment... and yep, he was steadily telling us exactly what all the parts of each one are and what they do.  He knows his stuff! 

"driving" this one

 

Now he is driving it backwards- silly boy!
