A trip to the Minnesota State Fair!

The Minnesota State fair is a pretty big deal around here, and during the two weeks that it runs, nearly everyone in the area will pay a visit at some point. Today it was Graham's turn to attend the "Great Minnesota Get-together" and he loved it! Each year Jeff makes it his personal mission to eat his way through the event sampling as many different varieties of food as possible, and tot surprisingly, Graham followed suit. Take a look at all of the different foods Graham had the opportunity to dine on!

First, he had some "Nitro Ice Cream"

Then, he shared a vanilla malt with Grandma

Cookies are the best!

Thrilled with his very own pronto pup!

Italian bread sticks with cheese and marinara sauce

It doesn't get any better than grilled corn on the cob

"Look Mom, no hands!"

Lefse with cinnamon and sugar

After the lefse, we thought that Graham must be thirsty and offered him a juice box. BIG MISTAKE! He guzzled it down immediately and not more than 2 minutes later, up it all came....right into my hands! Ahhhh, the joys of motherhood! Graham apparently wasn't phased by the fact that his juice came up, and immediately began asking for more cookies. Ummmm, I don't think so!


I suppose I should mention the fact that we did more than just eat at the fair today. We did stop to see some pretty cute animals as well!

Graham was a bit stunned by the size of this beautiful horse!
