Fair times

Since I'm on my "what I love about UT" kick here's a great one for ya...
FREE COUNTY FAIRS!

I'm not sure what it is...the mix of manure and cotton candy smells or what, but county fairs are so great. {I'm sure it couldn't be the years I spent with those animals!:)}

Since the boys and I have already been to 3 this summer I figure I'd better put in a plug for the "county fair". And if you're a local, here's a website that has the ones going on this weekend (just scroll down and you'll find the list). Utah and Davis Counties are hosting their fairs---and from what I hear Utah county even has a rodeo! {Oh man...with this kind of talk you might just see me pushing the boys in the sit'n stand too...:)}

Last weekend my friend Heather and I headed to the SL County Fair & although it was windy (hence Ethan wearing his sun glasses to keep the dust out of his eyes), it was totally worth it.

{Pet a Camel?} I must confess I've never been to a petting zoo with a camel and huge turtle in the same area. I haven't been that close to a camel since living in Jerusalem! Fortunatey it seems that the baby camels aren't quite so smelly...thank goodness!

So pack up the kids and go for it!
