The One With The Topsfield Fair

Today, we returned to the Topsfield Fair for the first time in many years. We had a blast.

We arrived at the back gate early (right before the Fair opened). It was great timing...evening for the last day of the fair. We didn't have to park too far from the gate.

The line was pretty quick and we were able to get in fast.

We were able to see Duck and Pig races (the latter was one that Emmie really wanted to see). Kiff and Bri got henna art on their arms. And, we were able to get some fried dough - always a must at the Fair.

The smells of the fair are still the same - unmistakable - which is always fun.

We did get a chance to see goats, cows, and sheep.

And of course, we got an opportunity to see the Great Pumpkin...which is something I always enjoy. The best part is that we also got giant pumpkin seeds. Totally fun!!! We cannot wait to try them.

We also visited the Bee Keeper Exhibit and made beeswax candles. I learned that they even have bee school to learn about bee keeping. It always starts in February and occurs on Tuesday nights. I think I might have to check it out.

All in all a fun day!
