NY State Fair

Two weekends ago the girls and I went to the state fair in Syracuse (about 1.5 hours away). They are just the cutest little things, and we had a great time! Lani's approach was to eat her way through the fair, and I was all about that (although she could even out junk-food me!). Between pizza, funnel cakes, ice cream, and lemonade, we spent most of the 4 hours there eating, but we also managed to see an assortment of animals (chickens, ducks, geese, rabbits, guinea pigs, cows, sheep, goats, pigs), feed some animals (goats, llamas, deer, donkeys, and a camel), and watch the horse riding and judging.

The thing bent over to eat out of my hand and I let out a squeal that made everyone turn and look at me. The camel was SO spitty that it scared me! He pulled away his mouth and left this huge disgusting trail of spit and slobber on my arm. A guy who was watching me started laughing hysterically. Needless to say the girls went back to feeding the goats!

Us at the end of the rainy day. It was just drizzly, so it wasn't too bad, and the temperature was about 70, so it wasn't cold.


Loving sisters :) Too bad Lani's eyes are closed because this is an adorable picture. All-in-all, we had a great time and the girls were so well-behaved. It was less than 10 minutes out of the parking lot before they were both asleep! I guess I wore them out :)
