Tanana Fair

The fair was definitely more than rides and was full of food, booths, and events. We of course loved all the food options and had to try out a pretzel wrapped hot dog(Yummy), kettle corn, funnel cakes and lastely my newest favorite find Flavored almonds!! I found a place that had toffee, mocha and garlic and onion flavors. Oh they are soooo yummy!
We also checked out the animals and the kids were able to interact with goats, pigs, turkeys, bunnies and horses. The kids loved all the different kinds of animals and I am very lucky that none of them were for sale or they would have tried to talk me into having a small farm by the end of the day. Our favorite animal display was a dog pull that we stumbled across. It was a large breed(meaning 125# or more) pull and watching the dogs was amazing. The winner pulled something like 1500#. We were able to go meet the dogs afterward and the Saint Bernards were amazing and just wanted to cuddle with you. They were great!
After all the fun of watching the dog show we headed over to get to snack on some funnel cakes and rest, we had been walking around the fair for over 4 hours at this point. But of course the kids couldn't just sit still and started wrestling up and down the hill we were sitting on. They played for well over a half an hour just going up and down the hill, tackling and rolling all over the place. It was a wonderful way to end the day.
