Grange Fair

Amongst all of our packing Bob wanted to go to the Grange Fair in Wrightstown (Council Rock school district). We packed up and headed for the long drive there. As we went it down poured and I prayed that it would clear up by the time we got to the fair! The fair is a large farmer's fair. It has everything from tractor displays for cutting your grass to tractors for farms to shed displays to farm animals to yummy greasy food! Every year they host a chicken supper which entitles you to a whole chicken (not really, but too much chicken for me to finish!), a corn on the cob, potatoes, a roll and of course ice cream for dessert. It is definitely filling!
.
We walked around the fair and Morgan was infatuated with the rides...she would say 'ooohhh' everytime she saw one of the big kid rides...guess she will be a dare devil when she gets tall enough...maybe by 16?! Speaking of being big...she liked watching the pony rides too...only problem...they told Bob you have to be 100 pounds to ride...wonder when she will hit that mark...
.
When visiting the animals she hated the pigs and the sheep! We put her stroller close to their cages and she turned her head away and said 'bye bye'. If we made her stay longer she started whining. She loved the cows, horses, chickens, and rabbits!
.
We got a picture of Morgan and her Daddy on a tractor...for her sake or for his?
.
As we were leaving it started to sprinkle so we made it out of the fair before getting rained on!

Now back to packing...
