OC Fair 2011

barely made it to the fair on closing day this year. it was the same as all the other years, rides that make me feel sick... and food that makes me feel sick! but i still try to make it at least once a year, here are a few pics from this years fair:

my compadres for the day. they were TROOPERS man... lasted WAY longer than i thought they would without air conditioning! and with minimal complaining/whining/nagging even! (note i said minimal, it was still an earfull!) mom, dom, tia, nolan, and aiden.



always fun watching the live bands at the numerous stages



smelly farm animals













rides that we didnt go on















some of the food we ate. one of my favorites, smokes turkey legs mmm



deep fried quesadilla



grilled cheese and bacon sandwich



my moms boring hamburger



deep fried oreos



mexican corn



funnel cake



another one of my favorites, deep fried chocolate covered bacon



we didnt get this, but damn look at these chili fries!



nolan helped keep aiden entertained



nolan sharing his wagon, aiden loved it!





and a perfect way to end our night... as we were walking towards the exit gate, nolan wanted to stop and look at something. the next second a runaway horse ran towards the exit gate and plowed through a bunch of people to escape! a bunch of cowboy dudes were running after it. the crazy thing is if nolan didnt want to stop, we probably would have been in the exit gate when the horse came through. man im never letting my kids sit on any animal rides, even if theyre trained they are still animals! reminds me of this clip:
