Fun at the Fair!

Today we headed out to Sandwich, Illinois for some family fun at the Sandwich Fair. If you have never been there before, it is HUGE! They have a variety of rides, all kinds of buildings with animals like cows, sheep, pigs, goats, chickens, and a petting zoo. They have buildings that have arts and crafts, buildings with things that have been judged like quilts, cakes, vegetables, etc. Plus they have a TON of food! You could eat all day!

So we have been coming to the fair every year for the past couple of years. It gets better every time too. This time Gracie was super excited about the rides. I think her favorite on this trip was the Fun Slide. We must have gone down it like 7 times!

And let me tell you, I nearly took this dude out, I slip real fast to the end and he was in the way!

Gracie enjoyed taking a train ride with Grandpa.

Gracie rode her old favorite, the merry-go-round. Of course we had to find a zebra horse.

And she even rode a choo-choo all by herself! My big girl!

After some rides, it was time to play some games. We found the ducky game and guess what? Gracie won! And I think that's only fair too because we paid $5 to pick 3 duckies!

Her prize was her favorite.....a panda bear!

We went in search of some animals after that.

Gracie liked petting the sheep.

And the goats too.

And we had fun looking at all the big tractors. In fact, we had even more fun taking pictures with the giant tire!

After that we ate and then it was time to head home. It was fun day but exhausting as well as this place was packed. And don't get me started about how people pay no attention when you are coming along with a double-wide stroller! I probably ran over a few people but could have taken out more! Anyways, a great day of family fun. Presley and Evie took in all the sights and that was basically it for them. Oh well, it tuckered it them out anyways. Next year, they will be able to ride some rides, play some games, pet some animals, and eat some yummy food with us!
