Topsfield Fair

Due to some serious tropical weather, we had to cancel our plans to go to the Big-E, so I was happy we had a nice day today to go to the Topsfield Fair. I love fairs - I love to walk around and see the displays, the smells of the different foods, and of course FRIED DOUGH!!

We met up with the Stack's right when the fair opened, and it's a good thing we went early because we missed the really big crowds! We made the loop, checking out the prize winning veggies, a magic show, and all the animals. I enjoyed seeing all the Home Good displays. They had some really neat stall showers that had all kinds of bells and whistles - I can only imagine how much it would cost to have one. I told Brian he should get one of the really sweet Hot Tubs we saw for his backyard!

With the addition of their niece Mackenzie, the children outnumbered the adults 5 to 4 but somehow we managed not to lose a single child, including at the very end of the day when David thought he could make a run for the exit by himself! We kept the kids in check between the Stack's single stroller, Snugli and wagon and our double stroller and BabyBjörn.

Check out the baby wearing Dads:


The wagon was by far the favorite mode of transportation and thankfully the three older children were very good about taking turns!



David checking out the BIG tractor tire!


Shaun always happy in the BabyBjörn!
