\"010\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We grew up going to the NC State Fair. Missed a few years while in Florida, but we’re back on track now. We took the crew, plus a tall boy, my good friend, and her daughter. <\/p>\n

\"007\"<\/a><\/p>\n

A little tree climbing while we ate<\/p>\n

\"008\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We arrived right at lunch time, so off to the Apex Lion’s Club booth…a fair tradition for 20+ years. They serve PIIIIIIEEE!! <\/p>\n

\"002\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"001\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"013\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We let the big kids go off on their own for a few hours, while Randy, Kelley, and I took the littles to the kiddie rides. <\/p>\n

\"016\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"022\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Meeting up with the big kids, they (including Randy) rode this crazy ride that went all directions and at the speed of sound. I watched from the safety of mother earth. <\/p>\n

\"023\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"026\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"030\"<\/a><\/p>\n

A little bungee jumping for L and D<\/p>\n

\"031\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"020\"<\/a><\/p>\n

On the midway, the kids played a few games, Abbey got a henna tattoo of “love” in Mandarin, and Payton had his artwork turned into an airbrush tee. He drew Harry, they enlarged it, and the guy traced it with the airbrush. So cool! <\/p>\n

\"034\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We ate at the fair. You just have to, there is so much to sample and enjoy…and try not to regret later. Payton and Ethan wanted to try these last year, but we talked sense into them. This year, we thought “why not?” In this picture, my dear readers, is a hamburger made with doughnuts instead of buns. Can you imagine? <\/p>\n

We had a blast at the fair, and spent almost 10 hours there. It was a late ride home, but oh so worth it. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
