Arlington County Fair

Who doesn't love a county fair? Well, ours was a little different than the ones I'm used to. It was missing livestock (except for the imported pig racers) but I guess I understand since there is nothing like a farm anywhere near here. It was still fun to check out the booths and flirt with the carnies (right JB?). ;)
Riding the carousel.
Channeling Kanye with these killer blind shades. Love the sign in the background.
The huge blow-up sheriff.
Ethan terrified of the huge blow-up sheriff.
Waiting for the pig races.
Julie participating in the pig races.
The pigs, ready to race. No pictures of them actually racing - sorry.

I love carnies... I mean, fairs. Looks like it was a good one. Any fair with a giant sheriff must be. What did it do to deserve hatred from Ethan??

I'm going to have to say that yours wins. Although Ethan might have enjoyed the chickens and rabbits in the hot, sweaty, barn at the fair. or it would have scared him to death. Those roosters are pretty intense.

We're headed to the fair tonight and then we'll catch the last night of the rodeo! It's always very interesting, but a must for summer!

Looks fun. At least Ethan was just crying at the Big Sheriff. Benny dry heaved when we saw the pigs at the fair and then lost it.
