the fair is over, hallelujah

As per my daughters orders, mom either blog or withdraw yourself.
So, here goes.
The fair is over, hallelujah.
Can't wait to do it again next year, although i would enjoy a back stage pass next time. If i like the talent coming in.
Burch and Lotz are a joy to work for.
Men don't like pink armbands, even when you tell them it really sets off their eyes.
Truck and tractor pulls are very very very loud, you should never give away your earplugs.
Also, you should not take babies to truck and tractor pulls.
Some men have an exceeding amount of hair on their arms. and really big wrists.
It is a scary thing to think you are gonna have to put two armbands together in order to fit around a womans wrist. it is scarier than man arm hair.
Corn dogs are better when they are hand dipped. and that lemonade was the best i have ever had.
Lawn mower races are not childs play. Or fun.
Three Dog Night may be old, but they still got the pipes.
"Austin" is still a great song.
It would be cooler if we had the fair in the fall.
Being a girl, i have never gotten to be an usher. it is harder than it looks.:)
I love, love love the slaw dogs. Although not as much as Blake Shelton.
Evidently it takes liquor to make a country singer an entertainer.
I saw 2 people I graduated high school with today, haven't seen one in at least 15 years, and almost that long for the other. Cool beans!
Seeing a calf being born was the coolest thing I have ever seen. Even cooler cause they had to pull it out. That is hard work, and kudos to the young men and women at the birthing center who let us all watch, even when it is aggitating the mother cow.
and the best thing about the fair, at least one of them, was getting to hang out with friends, both old and new.
And trying to spot my husband from the grandstand and smiling great big when i found him, even tho he couldn't see.

You guys are so sweet, I hope me and my better half are that much in love when we've been married 17 years.
