Idaho State Fair

We love any kind of fair at our house. The Uintah County Fair was Aaron and my first official date. And when I first realized that I might like Aaron more than a little. We try and make it every year and usually make it to the concert with it but since we were down in Utah for the week we only had Saturday left. We brought the kids along and had a great day out as a family. James remembered going last year and had his wish list lined up: ride a camel, ride the train, and pet the goats. We managed to hit all of them plus a few more. Aaron's fair list is simple: eat a funnel cake. We managed to get that one in too.

James was sure they would have the camels again and he was right he was much more comfortable this time than last year where it was a sort of nervous enjoyment

We had to go see all the animals. They have a huge tent full of different kids of goats, cows, ducks, etc. That the kids can pet. James couldn't get enough of them and Madie couldn't get far enough away. That is her screaming in fear when the got tried to get too friendly. Titus didn't seem to mind one way or another. 

 The only thing Madie was actually excited to see were the ducks and geese.

 I enjoyed seein the Zebu and no the perscetive isn't skewed his head is really the size of half my body.

 James was really excited to ride the little train and we were just going to let him go but Madie was so excited when she saw and kept signing 'train' like crazy so we decided to let her go with me. I'm not sure who enjoyed it more. Madie had a great time waving to everyone at the fair from the train. I think MAdie may be our roller coaster dare devil. While James looked at all the large rides and said he didn't want to ride them Madie kept pointing and cheering at them and asking for "one more".

 We also rode the carousel. Madie refused to get on with Aaron with her (did I mention she isn't much of an animal person even if they aren't real). But after it started going she enjoyed herself as did James.

Titus had fun just chillin' in the stroller and kicking his feet up. 

 We had another great year at the fair. I love having an evening out with the family and having some fun. I'm grateful for some wonderful kids that make the little things so enjoyable.
