It is the social event of Lawrence County, so we just had to take the family to the Middle Tennessee District Fair in Lawrenceburg this week. Believe it or not, other than a quick once-around the midway when he was just over a year old, he's never been. So, we took a mini-roadtrip home:)
Marmie's school was parking cars at Technicraft, so we picked up Papa and headed to eat. Papa's short dinner with us at the fair turned into a night of waiting in line with us--we're so glad that he stayed:) After thinking Max might not been too fond of the fair rides, we quickly realized that we were all mistaken. He would've stayed all night long:)

| Our first taste of cotton candy of the night...I have strong suspicion that there is still cotton candy hidden in corners of the house! |
And speaking of the level of sticky on this kid from his small suitcase of cotton candy coupled with the grossness of fair rides, I was thinking that we'd all be sick soon. It's amazing how you realize how completely old you feel when a trip to the fair has you cringing at the germ-infested safety harnesses and questioning about how diligently these rides really were put together---years ago that never would have even crossed my mind!

| This dragon roller coaster was totally his pick of the night...the last time he rode it, the ride actually STOPPED. Yes, stopped from electrical issues. Brandon had to help the carnie push it back to the gate:) |
 |
| Max waited so patiently for this guy to give him a potato sack for the slide. And this was even the third time down. He loved it! |
So, all in all--it was a perfect night! However, Sarah is the one that took the brunt of all the fair fun. After his sugar-induced coma, this is what Sarah sends to me at work on Friday....poor thing:)
