Iowa State Fair 2010

The Iowa State Fair is like a giant playground for wonderful food! This is my second year going and I think it only got better! Grantid last year I was like 7months prego and so stinking hot and tired I could hardly stand it...but it was worth it. This year it rained...not a lot but some. Renee and I were OK with that cuz it kept the temperature cool which was AWESOME!
We also did a little sight seeing while we were there too.

 

Jeremiah and me happy to be at the fair on vacation. I had to stop to take a photo on the steps of John Wayne's birth place in Winterset, IA (Madison County) 

  

we found this statue of John Wayne that had two real guns built into it and one of the real covered bridges of Madison County
