Fair Fun

We enjoyed a fun night at the Northern Wisconsin State Fair last night with Andy's parents. It was a warm one, but the boys had a blast.
Enjoying a little snuggle while waiting for daddy to bring us some dinner.
Grandma got some snuggle time with Anna in the heat while she fed her a bottle.
Brady was dying to get to the rides. Dinner just could not end fast enough for him. His first ride choice was the race cars. He remembered this ride from last year as it was his favorite then.Alex was just tall enough for the little kid rides this year. He really enjoyed riding the cars with his big brother. Too hard to look at the camera though, there was just so much going on!The little hill on the motorcycle ride got him giggling every time!Both boys were excited about riding the big semi-trucks.Anna was such a trooper! She was a happy girl in the heat and even slept through about half of our time there. Amazing to me given how loud it was between all the rides, people, and bands that were playing.Brady's prize of the night - a REAL lightsaber!Big night for our big boy - he was tall enough this year to ride his first roller coaster. Granted, it was a kid one, but still a roller coaster none the less. He really wanted Andy to ride it with him. They got a front row seat.Andy...a ham like usual...Brady thought it was so funny that Andy put up his hands going down the little hill and shouted on the dips and turns. He made it really fun for Brady's first ride. Thanks for being a trooper, daddy!We took the boys on the carousel. Just not the fair without a carousel ride!Alex enjoying his first snow cone with grandpa.Andy played a baseball pitching game and won Alex a giant bat that he really wanted. The look on his face says it all about the size of this thing.Yep, it's bigger than he is!Diane and I enjoyed our annual funnel cake. Good thing we had all our boys to share them with!Brady's little legs were getting pretty tired by the end of the night. Andy gave him a shoulder ride for a good long while. What a great dad, sweaty, but great!The boys really enjoyed seeing all the animals. The highlight was definitely seeing and petting the horses.We finished off the night by looking at some of the biggest tractors that John Deere makes. Brady thought it was pretty fun to climb up the huge steps to take a peek inside this one. It was another great year at the fair!
