State Fair

I took the kids to the state fair with GIna and her family on Friday the 17. We had a lot of fun dispite how i thought it was going to turn out because both the kids were pretty tired after school.
When we got there we started in the rides where each of the kids went on the fun houses and then rode in the spinning dragons (which remind me of the teacups in Disney land). Leighton was so cute with the younger kids. Gina was with a friend that had a little boy that was about 4 and he kept an eye on him and Linclon while they were on the rides. This is the five kids in the spinning dragons.




This is a picture a Swiss cow. I have never seen a cow this big. It had the horns and all. It reminded me of the movie Hiedi and the cows you see in the Alps on the show. Both of the kids looked so small standing in front of it.



While we were going through Leighton's favorite part (the animals) we saw a week old calf that was born at the fair. The owner was allowing the kids to pet it. It is at times like these that I wish Leighton didn't have my allergies because he loves animals so much. (Not sure why this is underlined but I haven't been able to undo it please try to ignore it)




They also got to pet a big cow. Anthony got talking to the owner and it turns out that Gina knows the family that owns them in Kamas.



Leighton let the sheep nibble his hand. He thought this was fun. I love how he is with kids and animals. He is so sweet with both.



Leighton also took his money so that he could play games. He is just like his dad. He played darts and was able to hit all but one balloon so he got a stuffed tiger (just what he needs another stuffed animal). Here he is with his stuffed tiger.
