Last Sunday, we made a family trip to the amazing Iowa State Fair. We decided to save some money and go on Extreme Sunday where admission is 1/2 price. Some nice older man also gave us a free ticket while we were waiting in line and we got there early enough that we did not have to pay to park. $5 for the State Fair, what a great deal! The money we spent on food is a whole other story, we won't go into that :) But, it's the State Fair, right?! It was so much fun to spend the day with Preston at the State Fair- all three of us had a blast!
This picture is not of the State Fair. On Saturday, Mommy and Preston went with Daddy over to his friend's house to help build their deck. Justin and his wife, Tiffany, have a little baby around 6 months named Lily. Preston enjoyed playing with her...although he now has a habit of hitting in the face...which Lily did not enjoy.

Mommy's favorite, the little piggies!
This picture is from last year at the State Fair in the butterfly tent. We absolutely loved this last year, so we decided to take Preston in this year. He definitely had a better view this time :) Sorry there are so many pics of the butterflies...they are all so adorable to me!
A butterfly landed on Preston's foot right when we went in. He was so confused about what was on his foot and he kept trying to kick it off. It was funny. If you know Preston, he does not like anything on his feet/toes.
Wearing Daddy's hat....with a butterfly on it.
"Let me see those creatures."
Mommy and Preston...he is holding a butterfly and there is also one on his shoulder.
Daddy and Preston trying to catch a butterfly
We were afraid he would rip their wings off, but he did a pretty good job of being gentle.
So pretty
Next, we went and saw "Buddy" the biggest boar. Sick.
Then, Big Black, the biggest bull. Yuck.
We took Preston to the petting zoo. We bought food to feed the animals and it was grooosss! As you can tell by Mommy's face.
Who knew there was such an animal?! Zedonk- 1/2 zebra, 1/2 donkey
This is when Mommy officially stopped feeding the animals...when this camel's tongue licked my arm in one swipe. Once again, sick.
This was actually a scary picture to be in....Mommy thought the camel was going to start licking us. Preston didn't take his eyes off of him.
Great Grandma Mary and Grandpa Kyle visited us that night. We took another four generation picture because Mommy was very "bloated" in the last one, the day we brought Preston home from the hospital.

Looks like you had a blast! I love the butterfly pictures! Gus would have loved that too! Preston looks so old- I can hardly believe it :)
