State Fair!!!

Hey guess what Hurst Clan...All those years ago when we were going on road trips and listening to Bill Engval joke about State Fairs I always thought he was just exaggerating but today I learned otherwise I learned that he is not lying when he talks about these strange wonders of the human realm that we call "State Fairs".


I SAW EVERYTHING HE JOKES ABOUT!!!!!!!


There was a woman who's belly was hanging out of her shirt (it was pretty nasty) and she had a cake in one hand and an ice cream in another, AND there was this pathetically skinny little man attached to her hip. It was way funny!

There was a stand selling Blow guns, and not one but 2 different booths selling SPAs, there were two fireplace stands, and RV stands... all things that I never thought would be an impulse buy.

There were even really really really ridiculously sized produce!


Unfortunately we went on the last day so if there was a large statue of Garth Brooks carved out of butter we missed it.
Anyway this being my first state fair to ever go to it was rather fun... I tell you what THE FOOD IS AMAZING!
There was an art's and crafts place and they had a doll house completely made of plastic canvas needle work (and it was about 4 feet tall and very detailed, they even had toilet and bathroom sink and faucet) here are some pictures:


They also had alot of really cool cakes, this was our favorite:

I thought we have been to a state fair long ago. I could be wrong but I thought we did it in Louisiana while visiting mimi and papa. Am I correct?

No, I never took you to a state fair in Louisiana. That was just a small amusement park. I you really love the doll house and one of us can find a pattern, I would LOVE!!!!!!!! to make one for you. Or anyone else for that matter.
