Uncle Funckle and the Fair...

I absolutely love the fair. Especially when the sky looks like this! My friend Heather and I went to the fair this weekend and had so much fun. They are getting crazy with the fried food items for sell. They were selling fried Dr. Pepper and fried rootbeer floats. Sounds made up to me. Weird!

Who knew you could still get airbrushed apparel? Heather is 22 and people ended up calling her 22 at work. We tease that she should get a tat that says 22 fo life. So the next best thing was an airbrushed hat with her "street name". Somehow my street name turned into Uncle Funkle by the end of the night.

This is the final product in all its glory. I didn't get one, but my Walmart has an airbrush shop just in case I ever change my mind.

Supposedly there was a teeny tiny horse in there. It said not even a baby could ride it. I am still curious to know what it looks like, although I didn't want to pay them a dollar to find out. I apparently wasn't that curious.

I had funnel cake and a snow cone and called it good. I love fair food!

I'm disappointed you didn't try the fried root beer float. I doubt that exists. I spent way too long admiring the photos on your Sheye Rosemeyer link. Wow! And then I spent way too long hugging Cate after reading Ava's story. Holy cow that is sad. I was dripping tears on my computer.

I wish there was a pic of the teeny tiny horse - maybe you can get one for me next year. Andrew has been talking up funnel cakes lately and I have never had one...I don't think we know how to make those in Utah. :)

uh Paige, I really think you need to take advantage of that airbrush shop while its around. The fair looks like a blast. Don't you wish you would have spent a dollar to see what that horse looked like? Now you'll always wonder. Too bad.

You've had your share of nicknames in the past but Uncle Funckle?!?! Did you get cotton candy? Please tell me you got cotton candy, I can live vicariously through you if you did.

Fried Dr. Pepper??? I know you secretly had one. And Linds, never had a funnel cake???? wth. I also wish you'd checked out that horse - that may have been a once in a lifetime chance!
