New York State Fair with the Borsts and Olivers

At the end of August, the Borsts and the Olivers came up to visit us in Syracuse so that we could go to the State Fair.  The Borsts come up pretty much every year for the Fair, and it was extra fun to have the Olivers join us too!

Checking out the baby chicks and ducklings

So cute!!

Ella and Leah.  Leah was pretty much attached to Ella the entire weekend.  Lucky for us, Ella didn't seem to mind a bit.

Woohoo, corndogs for lunch!

Who doesn't love a good corndog?

All of the kiddos love them!

Ella with a yummy curly fry

What a sweet brother, feeding his sister a curly fry!

Cathy and Ron enjoyed all of the best that Dino BBQ and Giannelli had to offer.  Yum!!!

Cousins pushing cousins

There were some really cool tree/flower people walking around.

After lunch we hit up the Dairy Building for ice cream and milk.  Leah was very upset that she didn't get her own ice cream, so she took over Mama's.

Cam DID get his own ice cream and he loved every bite.

Cameron and Leah looking at the butter sculpture

Cameron enjoy the 25 cent milk

Leah loves it too

What a cutie pie Lucia is!

Ron was very happy to get his milk and fried dough

Silly monkey

Jack was very happy to get some cotton candy

 Cameron was very happy that his cousin shared the cotton candy with him!

Leah had no clue what cotton candy was, but she really liked it when she tried it!

Cameron, Jack and Ella with a bison.  Leah wanted no part of standing near that guy!

Sleepy girl!  She tried valiantly to stay awake but conked out the last part of the day.

Our last stop for the day was to check out the sand sculpture.  This year it was a tribute to the Olympics.

Since we were there on the third day of the Fair, they were not done with it yet.  It was neat to watch it in progress.

The Fair!

We had a great time with everyone, love this tradition!!
