Mark Ballas in the Iowa State Fair Opening Ceremonies, 2009

The Iowa State Fair kicked off with the Opening Ceremonies at the Grand Stand on August 13, 2009. It started at 5:30am. :) Mark and Shawn made an appearance at 7:30am. They chatted with the radio hosts and Mark sang a few songs.  I have a few pics...but my camera had broken, so I had to use my Blackberry. It didn't do very well. :( The video is distorted and the pics are fuzzy. I was a lot closer to the stage than it looks in the pics/video. lol

Mark posted a photo of him and Shawn on stage:
