Neewollah 2011

This town puts on quite the party.  If you remember from last year, we had some friends visit to share in our first Neewollah experience.  This year we were lucky enough to have visitors again.  Grandma Joyce, Bailey, and Skyler all got some good deals on flights that happened to coincide with all the festivities.

The highlight of Neewollah is the food, unfortunately.  Vendors from all over line the main street downtown to serve up their greasy, fried, too-expensive, but oh-so-tasty food!  The smell of the town for 4 days straight is enough to bring your cholesterol levels up.  I save my calories all year long for these few days!  At the Neewollah headquarters here in town, they sell a shirt will a checklist of all the classic foods that are sold.  Here are a couple of pictures of some of the food that we devoured.  I think between all of us, we pretty much had it all.


Bailey was the first to try the deep fried Snickers.  If I hadn't already be overly stuffed, it would have tasted so much better.  It was surprisingly delicious.  It had a "s'mores" flavor to it, but it definitely cannot be considered a light snack.  Here is a picture of Bailey and Grandma Joyce watching her fried snickers be prepared.  They were captivated!


Look at that menu of just ONE of the vendors!

The girls had a lot of fun choosing a couple of rides and games to play at the carnival.  Only a couple though.  I wasn't in the mood to go bankrupt because I wanted to purchase outrageously priced tickets for the kiddos.
