The York Fair

The York Fair is running now through September 17. It's not only the country's oldest fair, with the first fair being held in 1765, it also has the distinction of being the country's first fair. It's a great fair, much bigger than the Maryland State Fair...with tons of rides, food and lots of other fun stuff. Look at all the fun we had...

There is so much food to be had at the fair. Elias was excited about cotton candy before we even got there. He got some and he was happy!

Tanner had his first little taste of cotton candy and he liked it as well!

I like taking pictures of food! This is a Fried Twinkie with Strawberry Sauce. The first bite or two was pretty good, but eventually you realize you're eating a Twinkie that has just been deep fried and there is no way in the world this could be good for you!

There's plenty of animals at the fair. Our friend Kourtni who came with us took Elias into the 4-H petting zoo. Elias was thrilled to get the chance to pet and hold a baby bunny.

Elias loves kitties! He was so happy to have a kitty just sit in his lap and let him pet him.

Elias also has a thing for goats!

Tanner was also fascinated by all the animals. He wanted to stick his fingers in every animal mouth he could find!

Jen put on these goggles that made you feel like you were drunk, then she had to walk the white line like a drunk driver. She was all over the place!

What's a visit to the fair without some rides. Elias loves this car ride that he also rode at the beach!
