It's about that time again.The State Fair is in just over two weeks. My boys love it. My extended family goes as well, and its not the fair if you didn't eat a corn dog and a lemonade shakeup.I remember the year I cringed when I paid $5.00 for Griffin's turkey leg, only to have the guy next to Griff at the table accidentally pick it up and take a bite. "My bad," was his response.Uh-huh.Before you know it, we'll be back.Going down the carpet slide, even though I get sick to my stomach climbing those narrow stairs, and shelling out several dollars for the ringtoss so we can take home a stuffed animal that won't fit in our car. Last year, we had to give it away to another family.We never leave without stopping in the swine barn. That's last year's photo above.See, there's more than corn in Indiana.

Have your boys asked to bring home a baby pig?
What the heck? Did the guy not offer to buy Griff a new turkey leg??
No, to the question about baby pigs...THANK GOODNESS. And no, Christie, the guy handed the turkey leg back to me...as if to say...sorry boutcha!
I tossed it in the trash, and he said if I was just going to throw it away, I should have let him keep it!
That seems to happen to you alot. Like the story about the coffee. I never have stuff like this happen. Maybe I'm just not paying close enough attention. That's grossing me out. I just hope that hasn't happened before.
