The Benton County Fair was in town a few weeks ago, and we decided it would be fun to take the kids (plus I needed a funnel cake)! It was free admission for the kids and Jesse and I were only $5 to get it, but they sure made up for it in rides, games and food. Everything was so overpriced. The kids loved the livestock, and watching the cows hooked up to the milkers. Their favorite part was holding the baby chicks, Avery is no longer afraid, which makes it so much more fun. We promised Ethan we could ride one fair ride and he chose the ferris wheel (who knew it would be $3 per person to ride). I am officially terrified of ferris wheels now, it was so rickety and rusty. Then we let him play one fair game where he threw a dart at a balloon. The game guy told us he could play until he won which was nice, but Ethan surprised us all when he did it on the first throw. Luckily it started to rain, so we had a good reason to tell the kids it was time to go :)

This sounds like it was a lot of fun. I love going to the fair when they're in town. I seriously ONLY go for the funnel cake and fresh strawberry lemonade. There's just no other reason to go! Ilove that they let the kids hold the baby chicks. That's really fun!
