The Mercer County Fair in West Virginia

On our visit to West Virginia we got to go to the Mercer County Fair. We spent most of the day at the fair and had a good time. There were booths, food, bouncy toys, and pony rides. And to make the day even better there was a nice breeze to help ease the humidity (this was one of my favorite parts).

This is my brother, Adam, and his daughter, Abbi. As you can see in the background, they are right in front of the bouncy toys. This, of course, was a popular spot for all the kids.

Here are Kate and Abbi inside the bounce house. Kate spent most of the time that we were at the bouncy toys in the bounce house. I couldn't get her out of it to try anything else. She loves it! Notice in this picture she is off the ground! She was like a jumping kangaroo. It was so fun to watch.

And they are down!

One of the favorite parts of the fair was the pony rides. The kids all had a great time! It was fun to see their excitement.

We had a fun filled day! It was great to be able to spend it with family that we don't get to see that often. Now that we live on this side of the country, I'm looking forward to spending more time together!
