"Don't miss it! Don't even delay"

 One of my favorite childhood memories is of our family going to the fair.  I don't really remember anything specific except that we went and the SCONES were good!  Oh, and one time my Dad bought an elephant ear- end of story.  So in the name of family tradition, I got this fanciful idea (Brannon's words) and we called the Nielsens and we drove to the LA County Fair!


 It was hot and sweaty but the kids had a blast- milking goats, cheering on pig races and getting freaked out by life-size (I exaggerate a "little") dinosaurs and small livestock.









 Oh, how sweet- our first picture as a family of 5, couldn't get any better than this- or could it?

 Of course, we had to end the evening with a little drama but anyhow - "Isn't it kinda fun?"
