Great Minnesota Get Together

Frankie and I haven't missed a State Fair since we started dating almost 15 years ago so when we found out he was leaving town for work for 11 days of the fair we knew we needed to jump at the change to go Opening day of the State Fair.  We headed to the Fair early (arrived at 10am) in order to hopefully beat the crowds and the crazy heat that was predicted for the day.  We knew we wanted to hit a few of our favorite things like Machinery Hill, The Home Depot Booth so the boys could build something, The Little Helping Hands Farm, The Animals Barns and of course the Kidway to enjoy some rides.  We also enjoyed plenty of our State Fair Food Favorites.  We enjoying Big Fat Bacon on a stick, Pronto Pups, Cheese Curds (twice), Smoked Turkey Leg, Mini Donuts, Hawaiian Shaved Ice, Alligator on a stick and a giant bucket of Sweet Martha's Cookies!  I have to say that I fully enjoyed our family day at the fair and made the most of it as we had to say Goodbye to Daddy the next day and won't see him for 11 days :(

  1. Geesh, another 11 days? Hang in there.

    Glad you guys had fun at the fair! Some year we should go together. Oh and those cheddar curds were ok, but like you we like the original better.
