Plainfield Farmer's Fair

Last week marked our annual visit to the Plainfield Farmer's Fair. The fair happens every July and while not as big as some other farmer's fairs that take place in our neck of the woods, the boys love going and look forward to it! This year the boys were more interested in the tractors, campers and mowers than the animals and also wanted to wait to meet the clown and collect a balloon animal. (a mouse for Eli and a giraffe for Carter) Of course, ice cream was a big hit and this year for the first time Carter asked to play the only game available and won a goldfish for the pond. Although he was not able to sink a ball in any of the fish bowls provided the gentleman running the stand appreciated his efforts and rewarded him with a fish!

Carter and Elijah try out the mowers. Getting ready to take over the family business perhaps.

Then they gave the tractors a try.

Enjoying ice cream at the end of the night. Chocolate for Carter and peach for Elijah.
