Love-a-Fair

Friday I went to the Davis County Fair with some a ladies from my neighborhood. There were 8 ladies and 16 kids that went. What a group! (and I am sure I could have found more to come!!) It was a GREAT TIME!! VERY FUN!
When we got to the fair we headed to the animals first. The kids had fun looking at and touching some of the animals. We saw cows, goats, sheep, pigs, horses, and a lama. Ashley was so afraid of the animals. She was okay with looking at them, but did not want to touch them! Next we headed to the booths. We found the kids zone tent and spent some time there. Some moms stood in line for the kids to get a balloon. There was coloring, face painting, a sand box, cars for the kids to ride in, blocks to play with, and some games that involved cows (milking, toss the bean-bag, etc). It was a large tent, and all these activities were FREE! The kids could play while the moms sat. It was great! a good break to let the kids do what they wanted. Kids got balloon hats and then we moved on. We checked out the kids discovery tent. They had different activities in there, along with some animals-14 ft. snake, turtle, spiders, and more! By this time people were getting hungry. We didn't spend too much time here, but again, the stuff there was great! good for the kids to explore and play. I got some ice cream to hold my kids over, then went to see the bunny's, hens, some of the 4H displays, and vendors, and then home.
It was great! The kids had fun, and all of them behaved really well. Some ladies meet someone new, and the moms had fun chatting. We moved well as a large group, and shared keeping an eye on all the kids. It wasn't too hot, so it made it really pleasant. The fair was small, clean, and inexpensive. no rides-didn't even go there.....
Charlie fell asleep on the way home, and Sarah & I got a nap at home! YES!
It was a GREAT time! Planning on going next year! Pictures to come!
