MN State Fair

On Friday, Ben came home early and we hit up the State Fair. I HATE crowds but I LOVE any kind of junk food so the State Fair is heaven to me! Just the 3 of us went and had so much fun! We didn't have an agenda except to EAT! And that we did... 2 orders of cheese curds, Sweet Martha's chocolate chip cookies, mini donuts, pronto pup and a strawberry malt from the Dairy Barn! it was all so good that I would really like to go back and eat again! :) Too bad you can't have that food delivered! :) We also saw Mike Pomeranz from KARE 11 introducing the news. he is actually cuter in person!


We had one scary little incident... Ben went into one of the building to find a bathroom and Matthew and I decided to wait outside and people watch. As we were doing just that a man walking behind Matthew had massive seizure. It was super scary. It all happened in slow motion! It seemed to take forever for anyone to do anything... it was so disturbing to me that people just stood there and stared at this poor man. I ran over there but there was nothing I could do and in a matter of 20 seconds, a woman ran up and said she was an EMT and then a few cops showed up and the ambulance was there really fast and I got Matthew out of there... luckily he was sitting with his back to it and didn't see any of it. The man did a face plant into the sidewalk and there was blood everywhere. So I got Matthew out of there and we waited for Ben. It was such a freaky experience. We said a little prayer for the guy and hope he is OK. He was all by himself, I felt so horrible for him! UGH!! I just wish I knew if he was OK.


So after that, it put a little damper on the night but we still had fun. here are some pics!


Ahh cheese curds!!! These were Matthew's favorite!!
