Best 12 Days of Summer

Wow - I can't say enough about how much fun the MN State Fair is. We trekked through it for 12 hours and still left talking about all the things we missed!

Our traditional breakfast - Scotch Eggs. Hard boiled eggs wrapped in sausage and deep fried for a crispy outer layer. Dip in a ranch and horseradish mixture and your are all fueled up to see the fair.


The boys testing out some hats


Lunch! Not sure what the guy at the end of my sandwich is doing...but now his head looks like a little meatball laying in cheese :)


The boys loved this robot guy walking around...he had a funny sense of humor too.


We stopped in the butterfly house for the first time ever - the boys loved it. Cayden had 12 butterflies on his shirt at one point.


And Dylan had a couple of guys perched on his fingers almost the entire time.


Grandad and Mima had almost as much fun as the boys on the Giant slide.


Cheese curds are also a must every year.


At the Gander Mountain tent you could take your picture on a green screen and choose your scene to put it on. Cayden was terrified..


Dylan relaxed with some owls.


Being from Wyoming, Rick and Jo weren't too afraid of the MN bears.


And Jan and Chris brought in the big catch.




(Almost) Everything comes on a stick at the state fair...even beer - which makes you happy.


But just like the fair, everyone is sad when it's gone...
