We went to the Utah State Fair up in Salt Lake City on Saturday and it was so much fun. The kids loved it! We saw lots of farm animals (cows, pigs, sheep, goats, chickens, and pigeons). Here is Anna standing next to one of the cows; I'm personally shocked she got that close, even with her dad next to her.
Merry-Go-Round ride - this was Jake's first time and he was so enthralled by everything around him. He had this stunned smile on his face the whole time.
They had 4 white tigers there also and Jake kept growling at them, because he was saying what the tigers say!
Cody won a toy blow-up hammer for Anna...hooray for Daddy!
The helicopter ride was fun for Anna; she couldn't stop waving at us, even when we weren't facing her. She'd just keep waving all the way around.
Anna got to ride "the real horse" too... and she loved it! She was so excited to get to ride a real horse - by the time she got comfortable with it she was petting the horse also.
Here he is at the summit...
Since they left at 5:00 a.m. he was able to see the sunrise and hike half way up using his headlamp since it was still dark!
He took some beautiful shots of the trees with their changing colors up in the mountains.
I love this picture!
Part of the trail they were hiking on. What can I say, die hard hiker or what?
