This past Thursday we all went to the Utah State Fair. The kids had lots of fun and I will readily admit that my favorite part was definitely the funnel cake covered in powdered sugar and chocolate :) Anyways, here are a bunch of pics

Jacob loves sharks so the chance to see 3 of them up close was very exciting!
Don't us moms all secretly wish that we had a cage like this at our house every once in a while . . . .
This was a fun exhibit where the kids got to simulate a bunch of farm tasks and work
Everyone make sure to grab an apron and bucket
The cow was 'moo-ing' and it was kind of freaking Bryce out - you were supposed to put your bag of corn in the bucket under the cows head and Bryce would start to reach his hand out, then the cow would make its noise, and he would jump back :)
Hailey milking the cow
Picking apples. Love the apron string under the but look
I think this is just a cute picture. I like that sometimes I can see glimpses of the kids actually acting like friends!
Planting seeds
After the farm exhibit we walked through all of the livestock buildings - here is Jacob petting a goat
Here is Jacob trying to get Hailey to pet the goat
Caleb hung out the stroller most of the day, but really enjoyed the constant supply of licorice :)
I was really trying to get Bryce to look at me, but he gets a little nervous around animals and he just could not take his eyes off of those ferocious caged bunny rabbits :)
Bad lighting, but cute pic - this was waiting for a turn on the horses
the next 2 pics are completely out of order - but here is Hailey watching the bear show
Just hanging out :)
Here are the horse pics

Surprisingly, while he was highly suspect of the bunnies, horses seemed to be no problem . . .?
