We have not been to the fair in several years because... well because it costs a million dollars. This year we decided to meet some friends there. We spent $53 in about 3 hours. And the kids only went on ZERO rides and our friends picked up are tickets to get in the gates($2 a person).
Here is the breakdown.

Pony Ride (really what we came for): $6
Looking at animals: FREE
Petting animals: FREE
Feeding animals: $5 (2 ice cream cones with pellets)
Kneeling down in animal poop: FREE
Chocolate Dipped Ice Cream Cones: $5 each (3 of them and so worth it)
Cheap Strawberry Shortcake doll that Dad bought for daughter who loved it so much (for 5 minutes): $6

Family photo that truly captures Mom's shortness: FREE
Seriously, am I that short? Yes.
Welcome friends, family, randoms, lurkers, blog addicts, fellow desperate moms, and Bono. This blog consists of mostly funny stuff that will make you feel better about yourself. Lots of mom comedy, non-Kodak moments, and un-fashion tips. On Wednesdays I write about my life as a former childhood actress complete with posts about how the entertainment business works, actors I met (or stalked), people and animals I worked with, my Hollywood friends, and photos of former teen heartthrobs. And if that’s not enough to draw you in to follow me . . . I have done some amazing giveaways. A rubber chicken, millions of doll hairs, and unlimited supplies of air. Come join the party.
