The County Fair

Posted by My Heart Song

Our county fair is going on this week. We've already made 2 visits - one afternoon of browsing exhibits and animals, a second afternoon of rides (strategically planned for "Dollar Days" when all rides are reduced to $1). Our entire family LOVES the fair!

My favorite part is walking through the exhibit hall. I am always amazed at the creativity God has given people! Here are my kids LOVING an exhibit that was just their size. This was in the category of "Recycled Articles." It's an entertainment center turned into a kid kitchen. Pantry shelves. Little cupboards. My son is right in front of a faucet with a stainless steel bowl under it, making the sink. A pretend oven on the left. Ultra cute. And would be so easy to make... with an old entertainment center!

My kids were equally enthralled with this doll house. Very cute and creative.

This was my daughter's 3rd (or is it 4th) year of entering an "exhibit" for a 4H project. She's young enough to be part of "Mini 4H" in which every exhibit gets a ribbon. This year's project - a plate of 6 no-bake cookies that are all the same size.

Wherever you may be, get out there and enjoy your county fair!
