NM Fall Countdown- State Fair


The green chilies have already been roasted, peeled and bagged (and cooked with too of course). After green chilies comes the state fair!











This was the stunt man show. They asked for kid volunteers wearing baseball caps to stand next to the landing pillow. Allie ran up with Jason's cap on (she is standing in the middle in the above shot). The guy jumped from the stunt tower and when he landed, all the kids hats blew off. Jason got it in the shot. Kind of fun.









I am exhausted and so is Jason but these have been sitting and waiting to be posted for for a week and a half. Maybe I will come back later and add some text. For now, just thought you would want to see the photos.

My favorite was the milking demonstration shot outside the dairy building (which sold the best ice cream cones and milk shakes). Tell me that was not hilarious!!!

It was super hilarious!! One of our favorite activities of fall too. However, this year we left all the kids at home since we went to one of concerts.

It was fun to see the pictures of your day at the Fair. The "Milking Demonstration" was especially funny.
The kids look like they had so much fun and what was Jason eating on the stick - it looked super delicious?

I love your nursing by the dairy exhibit! WE LOVE FAIRS! The MN state fair is supposed to be amazing but we didn't go this year. Just the county one. Looks like you guys had a blast--awesome pics, too!

That was a hilarious shot! Definitely keep that one. If you have the courage you could send it in to Jay Leno, too. Very well staged.
