Iowa State Fair

So...because I am a farm girl I absolutely love the Iowa State Fair. I think Josh secretely hopes each year that I will choose to not put our kids through the hot temps, crowds of people, and any kind of fried food on a stick...but each year I can't imagine not going. Lake really enjoyed going the past couple years and now that Harper is getting older, I knew she would enjoy it as well.

We were able to watch a baby lamb being born...Lake is so curious about the world and how everything works, this was right up his alley. :)


The famour slide.

Harper loves animals, espeically cows and horses. But we found out she prefers there be a fence and atleast 15 feet between her and the animal. Lake on the other hand...no fear.

In awe while walking through the horse barn.

Mike and Vicki met us there later in the day so Lake insisted Mimi go down the big slide as well.

Lake loved this!

Ye Old Mill....I love Mike's expressions. :)
