The County Fair!

I can't stop thinking about the chocolate covered bacon. I didn't actually try it, but the sign caught my eye and I exclaimed loudly, "chocolate covered bacon??" and a friendly passerby had to tell me that it was so good and tasted like caramel at first and then just melted in your mouth.

But, I walked by and now I mourn that I may never actually know what it tasted like. I mean, bacon and chocolate- TOGETHER! Oh My Goodness! I also walked right past the Deep Fried Twinkies and the

and the

and the

but seriously... it's the bacon I just can't get over. I did get to enjoy the most delicious chocolate dipped ice cream bar rolled in almonds and toffee. It was one of those moments when you feel like, "Yes! I made the right choice. This IS as good as it looked and well worth the calories." Mmmmm... yes, that was good.

So while I try to get the thought of chocolate covered bacon out of my food obsessed mind I'll tell you about the lovely day I had at the fair with my boyz.

I strangely rode a ski lift in the middle of Pomona and was able to get this shot.

We watched the boys swing high in the sky

zoom zippily in water wagons

nervously wait to go on high speed spinning spirals

and slip smilingly down super stretch slides.

Hottie Huband noticed that the horses were going to be racing so we snuck up to watch and allowed the kids to see their first horse race (while they begged to go back to the rides).

It was pretty cool to be so close to the action.

The number 3 horse won.

I zoomed in and noticed that

he must have floated to the finish line because this horse's feet are

not touching the ground.

Then we headed over to see the farm animals.

The kids were able to see newborn baby lambs and witness one lamb stand up for the first time. They loved this moment. There were too many people so I could not get a picture.

Durn people!

But, another miracle was captured. The miracle of Hottie Husband actually holding the camera in his hands and pushing down the button to capture a picture of

little old me with farm animals trying to eat me.

Well, they weren't actually trying to eat me, they were trying to get the food in that cup.

But, these guys were aggressive.

They chased the boys and even jumped up on them. I had to get the baby out of there.

I was worried they nip his chubby little toes.

Aren't they looking at Toots like he might be edible?

One of these guys even ate Jackie Boy's paper cup.

I'm still wondering if that hurt coming out.

After surviving being pet by the petting zoo,

we went outside and some birds attacked

Little Bear.

See them trying to eat his cheeks.

Speaking of eating..

I felt so bad for this mama with her yunguns a clamorin and a fighting to get to her nipples. And she was a justa layin there tryin to shut out the ruckus.

I feel so bad for her that out of respect, I don't think I'll ever be needing that chocolate covered bacon.
