County Fair!

Hello everyone 
and
Welcome back!
It's the time of the year the County Fair 
rolls into our small town!
Funnel-cakes, Fried Oreo Sundae,
Ribeye sandwiches, Lemonade,
Tractor pull and Midway rides
just to name a few of my favorite things!
Oh, and of course Exhibits.
It's been a few years I actually entered anything in our fair,
it always seemed I never could get my stuff together 
when it was time to drop the entries off.
But this year I decided to get my ducks in a row 
and try again!
 My 3 entries ready to go!
Well, what do you think?
I tell you later how I did!!!
 Since this post is all about our grand Fair
I duck through my stash
and found
these two fair cards I made at a 
stamping get-together with friends many moons ago.
 The Midway
 My kind a ride!
Don't laugh but I'm serious,
the Mary-Go-Round is all I can handle!
Don't get me wrong, I love the rides
especially at night, they are so pretty! 
Hubby and I stayed for the Truck and Tractor Pull.
A perfect night at the Meade County Fair!

And YES I won a ribbon
or 
actually 3!
First prize for my knitted shawl and the card
and
second prize for the photograph.

Thanks for stopping in
and
I hope you all have a great weekend!

    Thanks for sharing the photos...I used to go to the local fair in our town when the girls were small...always so much fun. Your photos capture that excitement that is always in the air at a fair!
