County Fair

One of my favorite times of the year growing up was fair time.  Seriously, what could be more fun than being at the fairgrounds for hours on end, showing animals, winning prizes, and hoping beyond hope that you'll make some good money in return for all of your hard work.  It was a rewarding time where hard work payed off.  Nate hasn't been able to take part in any fairs as a contestant, but he is able to experience the magic of the county fair.  The small home town feel and eager anticipation of watching the cowboy's stunts brought a sparkle to this little boy's eye as he jumped out of the pickup Saturday night.
