Annual Tradition-Carver County Fair

The Carver County Fair was a happening place! We had fun walking around finding lots to eat, seeing the sights, riding rides and finding cool animals.

Nana and her grandchildren walking the fair.

Chase loved to ride the Merry Go Round

Owen and Daddy get ready for their ride. Owen gets a little sick or scared on some rides so Daddy held him most of the time. Just as fun.

Mommy and Chase

We got to pet the sheep, my favorite. Here Owen reaches out.

Nana and Chase pet the sheep too.

Nana and Papa with the boys.

We got to hold the baby chicks, which was a highlight. The boys were so careful and gentle and thought it was really cool. Owen is clearly very happy about holding the chick.

Chase is so gentle and kind. Look at that cute chick!

Both boys and the tiny legs of the chicks hanging down. I love it that their hands are about the same size as the chicks!

I took this picture because of Owen's big eyelashes. I was gazing at his face and the light behind him lit up his eye lashes just beautifully. What a beauty.

The boys also got to ride the car ride. Oh boy! Sandy and Jim said, "I don't think Owen likes the ride, " which was based on his expression. Jeff and I both knew he REALLY liked the ride! This is his race car driver face. He is very serious and feels he is driving the car! LOVE IT!

Chase smiles and enjoys the ride whereas Owen gets into character in the background.

Chase loves the ride!

There is a great petting zoo at the fair and right beside it are the ponies. This year the boys wanted to ride the ponies and they did great! Chase rode by himself and Owen had a little reassurance (help) from Daddy. They both really liked the ride and were such big boys. They waved at Nana and Papa and Mommy.
