Wisconsin State Fair

OK, now I know why my Mommy and Daddy love the Wisconsin State Fair so much, that place is super cool. I went on Saturday night (Mommy and Daddy needed a break from getting ready for our move) and went to the fair with Uba, Grandpa and of course Mommy and Daddy. There was so much to do, animals to pet, and things to EAT! I loved just riding around checking out all the people and the buildings but I especially enjoyed when we got to stop and see some of the animals. I spend so much time practicing their noises that it was nice to see them in real life. Here I am with a sheep, they were very soft and bright white. I liked their black ears, just like my Ruby. Then I went to see a pig, the nice lady there knew my Uba and let me in. The pig's name was Big Momma and she is giving birth in one week. I was careful to pet her very gently. After that I got to pet a big cow and then my most favorite of all, I got to play with a baby cow. This nice boy let me hug and pet his baby calf for a really long time. He even opened his mouth and showed me that his calf is just getting his teeth in now...just like me! I really loved that little guy, so soft! We ended our animal visits by watching some very graceful Clydesdale horses parade right in front of us. They were Uba's favorites.
I took a break from the animals to jump in an inflatable activity center made just for toddlers. The adults all loved it because I got to scream and run around and couldn't get hurt! I met some interesting kids in there including this guy. Check out that crazy mullet! I kept my distance although he really seemed to want to play with me. My parents taught me to fear the mullet!
Now, I love animals but let's get serious...even a little guy like me knows the fair is all about the food. Take a peek at what I gobbled down this year. Cream Puff! Cheddar Nuggets! Corn Dog! Grilled Cheese! Brat! Corn on the Cob! Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Balls! Then after I ate I was in a food coma and it was almost 9:00 PM. I could hardly keep my eyes open but I still managed to sign "Eat" to my parents. I just couldn't get enough of that fair food. The Wisconsin State Fair rocks and I can't wait to come here again next year!
