Life's a Fair

   So on Saturday we decided to truck on down to the KY State Fair.  We were planning on going to the Zoo Glacier Run exhibit but once I mentioned that there were baby piggies at the fair that was where we were headed; no ifs, ands, or buts about it (the main "but" being that there was a huge concert going on that night and Matt and I knew that it would be packed!)  Oh well, more people watching for us! 
   (Caroline loves pigs... her favorite TV show being about a British pig named Peppa and her little brother George.  Has anyone else seen Peppa Pig?  We now know every word to Peppa Pig, even Grandad knows every word to Peppa Pig.  The other day Caroline called a glass of juice a "beaker" of juice and it seems that she has developed a slight Madonna accent...enough Peppa Pig!  My sister Carla came in from Lexington the other week for a visit and noticed that a lot of the children's shows involve cute little porky people... and they are the only shows my kids watch "Olivia", "Peppa" and "Toot and Puddle".  So to sum it up, my kids like pigs.)
  After an hour and a half car wait (thank God for Daddy's Iphone that plays Netflix movies!), 40 bucks to just get our car in and park, and a tiny "I'm starving" tantrum via Charlie, we were off to find the pigs!
   We had an awwesome time!  The kids loved it!  The Discovery Farm exhibit is a must for anyone with children; they of course have the baby piggies, little ducks that slide down a slide, baby cows, horses, chicks, bunnies..... all in all it was too cute and you could pet almost everything!

The cows were a bit stinky...Caro didn't like the looks of them

Much better!  A smaller, less smelly duckling

Good Lord Almight! It's Donkey from Shrek! How lucky are we!!!

   We also visited the Safety City where "Uncle Brents" taught Caroline how to safely ride a trike around the city, being super mindful of stop lights :)  P.S. Matt's brother is a cop and every other cop in this fine nation of ours is now known as an "Uncle Brent".

What you talkin about Uncle Brent?

She's off!!!
