Mason County Fair

Today we went early to beat the heat at the Mason County Fair. It was nice and quiet first thing. We got to see the 4-H kids in action. Lauren was pretty excited to see Clifford the Big Red Dog made an appearance as well. She ran up to him and hugged him immediately. I had to talk her into going back for a picture.

We walked around....a lot.....that's all Lauren wanted to do. We did sit down and have some fair food of course!

Before we left, we let Lauren take a Pony Ride. She was really excited. I was hesitant after her debacle on the carousel at the zoo in March. But she did awesome.

Here she is riding away hanging on to the horn. I was an arm's length away, just in case. She loved it.

A real cowgirl...minus the apparel!

When she got off she patted her pony on the neck and said "Thank you pony!" Then she asked the owner what his name was. Then she said "Bye Skinner!" When we left.
