Believe it or not, the Denneler family went to their first Kansas State Fair on Saturday. We saw for ourselves what all the hubbub is about: sun, fun, games, prizes, rides, Pronto Pups, giant watermelons, an entire building full of bunnies, butter sculptures and so much more. Luckily, the weather was perfect. Although, by the time we left it was getting a little toasty.
Now that we've been, I'm sure we'll be back. I wanna catch the pig races next year.

 |
| Only the biggest and best make it to the State Fair. |
 |
| We saw 1000's of rabbits. Every one of them cuter than the next. |
 |
| Missed the demonstration by 5 minutes. Darn. Have to catch it next year. |

| Bea was a little nervous on the ski lift ride across the fair grounds. |
 |
| This butterfly landed on my iPhone and stayed. For. A. Long. Time. |
 |
| Bea's first carousel ride. |
 |
| Gus' favorite ride - The Giant Slide. Just a boy, a burlap sack & gravity. |
 |
| Fun on the midway. And no, we didn't ride that slingshot thingie. |
 |
| Bea's favorite ride too. A smaller version of The Giant Slide. |
 |
| She would have slid down this 100 times. (Which would have cost us $300.) |
 |
| We won a plastic sword, handcuffs and a purple dolphin at the Lucky Ducky. |
 |
| Look, there's a Bea on that sunflower! |
