Monday at the Fair

The Minnesota State Fair called to us on our first morning back in town so off we went. Monday honored kids and senior citizens, perfect for us four.

Everyone voted to have pork chop on a stick for a hearty breakfast, and girls devoured every morsel.

Next stop was the Miracle of Birth Barn where girls could observe and pet animal moms and babies. While there, we watched the birth of a calf in the designated maternity pen in the center of the building. Seeing the mama cow licking her new baby elicited oohs and aahs from the crowd, our girls included.

Last step before leaving was the meticulous washing of hands at one of the many cleaning stations.
