Kansas State Fair

We decided to go to the Kansas State Fair on Saturday. We hadn't planned the trip previously but the weather was perfect and we thought it would be a great family trip. I always love the animals, but it makes me miss my childhood days when I lived on the farm. My favorite part is the birthing center. We stopped by on our way out and a dairy cow was in labor. I wanted to stay and watch a calf be delivered but Madelyn and Ryan didn't want to stay that long. :( We checked out all the animals, picked up some freebies from the booths, got harrassed by the carnies, got sunburned, and had an overall fun time.



I did not want to sit on these horns but Ryan seemed to think it would be a great picture.




A winner!!!!



A winner times two, that about drained our savings!

That's what they mean by grabbing the bull by its horns?
