A Birthday affair

As you all know, yesterday my beautiful wife turned 27. If you know Lynn, you know she doesn't like a lot of gifts on her birthday, she just wants to be doing something fun with the people that she loves. This year proved no differently, and the main thing she wanted to do was go to the Coastal Carolina Fair. Part of the fun for her going this year was the fact that I had never been to a county fair, so she was able to experience the fried food, the old school rides, and the masses of (unique) people with a newbie like myself.

We went with our good friend Erin, but unfortunately we got stuck in traffic for over 3 hours trying to get to the fair! It was a rough start to the night because we missed the band Chairman of the Board, and didn't end up arriving until 9:30! As you can tell, I wasn't too happy about the traffic!

We finally made it in to the fair, and the first thing I did since we hadn't eaten dinner was go for the corn-dog stand. It was by far the best corn dog I have ever had! (sorry we didn't capture proof of it). Lynn decided to go for the fried twinkie. And, our friends Jessica and Josh went for the fried oreos. Erin went for the fried Milky Way, and I think we all unanimously decided that hers was the best deep fried item of the night! No one was gutsy enough to go for the fried butter (yes, that was a real option!)



Even though we waited in traffic for over 3 hours to be there, I was glad we stuck it out and got to be there for a couple hours Saturday night. Thanks everyone who called, and sent gifts or cards yesterday and helped make Lynn's birthday special!
