A Day at the Fair

I love the Fryeburg fair. As a kid we went every year--I only missed the time I lived in Washington. So as an adult I have continued that tradition in a different way...every year my mom and I take the kids to the Fryeburg fair. We have been doing this since Gabe was a baby. The kids love it and every year we   re-visit old favorites and find something new. This years "new" find was an utterly fantastic magic show which I have no pictures of because I was containing the crazy almost two year old. BUT I know it was utterly fantastic based on the boys' laugh-o-meter--they spent most of their time laughing and ooooing....so it was good. 

Anyway of course some of the old favorites are old Macdonald's Farm and the Forestry building....
Ben wavered between saying oh nice baby and running to me for cover....


this year for some reason milking the cow statue next the MacDonald's Farm wasn't enough--they had to CONQUER the cow. ALL of them. Silly Boys.

our favorite "bon homme" (scarecrow but this hardly seems the right term) I have to say we LOVED this one...it actually reminded me of my niece ...hehe
