The Euken's ... Life as we know it!

August 22, 2010

all for 10 bucks, ok 20

Dedicated to-

Kate and Brian: Who are in Europe and could not find a cheap enough tickets to Des Moines to come back for this blessed event

The Williams family: Who are (still) Iowa State Fair virgins due to an unexpected change in plans on Saturday

Admission to the fair is $10 ... so for two adults we paid $20 and this is what we got for it!

There was a lot of eating!!





Even a little swimming (since it was a million degrees outside)



A cattle show


Where I won Grand Champion Market Heifer!!!



Bret got into a little trouble because he tried to use his fans in the cattle barns, he must have missed this sign ...



There was a Ferris Wheel ride



But best of all, Dave scored us entrance to the Little Big Town/Sugarland concert!!!!!!!







Not bad for 20 bucks :)

Seeing Allie Wulfekuhle at the fair...priceless! How did you fit the large amounts of food consumed by you :) into your 20 buck total? Love me some Sugarland!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for the shout out! We are definitely missing the state fair antics with the Eukens. Earlier this week I was remembering back to State Fair last year and what a great time it was!
I'm looking for my roasted sweet corn and corndog in the mail...
