When the corn is as high as an elephant's eye...

...you head to the Indiana State Fair, of course.



We went today, all day, with Mamaw and Dadaw. It was lots and lots of fun, and we did everything. We rode rides! (It's a good thing we're so tall)



There were the kiddie cars:



Even Jake was tall enough to ride the caterpillar coaster...




Though Isaac thought the baby coaster was "REALLY FUN!", his brother, who was game for it at first, declared it to be "REALLY SCARY!". Maybe next year.

We found a dinosaur ride, to the extreme delight of the Isaac:



And a truck-driving ride for both my boys, who proudly sported their free Pioneer Seed trucker caps:



As we were on our way out, Isaac insisted he and I take a spin on the zippy merry-go-round together.



And then, $30 of Dadaw Warbucks's money poorer, we said goodbye to the midway and hello to the crazy fair food.

Jake is 38 inches tall? Holy crap he is as big as Gavin. I think Keaton is only 32 or 33 inches tall and he's only a month or so younger than Jake. Crazy!
Looks like they had fun on all the rides. I wanted to take the boys to our city fair but I knew they were too small for most of the rides.
