Now the STATE FAIR. To say I love the state fair could be an understatement. I love EVERYTHING (well maybe not the crowds) about the fair. The rides, the different booths and attractions, and of course the FOOD! I have passed on my love for the fair to Don (who is from Winston Salem and had never been to the state fair until we started dating over 8 yrs ago. Now he cannot wait for the fair to come to town. Now Ashlynn has the same love and excitement for the fair. This was Ashlynn's 4th fair but the 1st she really got into. Ashlynn (much like her mother) had to experience everything. She loved the rides and being bigger this year meant she could ride a lot more things.
Then we went on to the buildings full of booths, animals, and produce. Our favorites being the Mt. olive pickles, the GOP booth, the American Music Jubilee booth, the Maple cotton candy booth, The right to life booth, and the House of Autry booth. Then its on to see the wining craft projects such as the cross stitching, Clothing, cakes, etc. The cakes were Ashlynn's favorite to look at. Then we visit all the animals and did a quick run through of the winning produce. She was amazed by the really big pumpkin! Then it was onto sampling the food (Ash was not a fan) however, this was Everett's favorite part. Our favorites are the roasted corn, tempura veggies, and the kettle corn. There is other things we try bites of here or there, but those 3 were the biggest hits!!! Everett really could have cared less about the rest of the fair except for the food and the animals. He could only ride 2 rides so he wasn't very interested in that aspect of the fair. I cannot wait for the coming years when they both can fully enjoy the fair.
