Alabama State Fair

Last night my friend Lea's husband, Bobby, got us together to surprise Lea by taking her to her very first state fair! She was like a kid in a candy shop, grinning the entire time and wanting to ride every single ride there just taking it all in! It was a lot of fun! We got to check out the awesome variety of animals at the petting zoo, rode some rides, bumper cars, and then ate some really greasy, fried fair food! That's right - corn dogs, twisted taters, and funnel cakes mmm!! So check out a few of the many pics we took.

The girls on our first ride.


Going up...


I was almost not tall enough to ride the ferris wheel.. As you can see I didn't think it was that funny! ;)


Not to overload you with pictures but here are a few of the "party animals" as the banner called them!

This guy got stuck :(


Very strange creature..


Crazy cow.. check out those horns! The Texas longhorn behind him wouldn't pose for his own pic.

Who would have known that the first kangaroo I would see in real life was at the AL state fair?!

Strange looking fella.. the average male stands 6ft tall!


His tail was huge!


This guy wanted some love too!


They all loved her.. Lea was like Snow White!
