Salt Lake County Fair

Tonight we went to the fair. We love going every year and it is wonderful that it is so close to our house. We don't have to go very far at all! We pretty much just saw all the animals. Makena and Tyler had a great time looking at the animals, Kali...not so much. The only animals she liked this year were the rabbits. Tyler was going crazy, running around to all the cages calling everything "sheep." Makena loved the sheep, horses, rabbits and cows. She told me that she didn't like the pigs because "they were stinky." We also went into the petting zoo and got to feed the animals some carrots. Kali HATED this part and wanted to leave the moment we went in. Tyler loved feeding the goats and horse. Makena loved the horse and also the baby goats. There was a huge bunny in the petting zoo that Kali wanted to go see. We went over there and this bunny was all over Jarel. He was jumping up on his lap, nibbling at his legs and arms and getting a little frisky with Jarel. It was the funniest thing and I was laughing so hard, tears were coming down. He wouldn't leave Jarel alone and the more we tried to shoo the bunny away, the more he came back attacking Jarel. Maybe I should call the bunny a "she"! It was a fun little outing for us all.

Jarel showing Kali the sheep. She couldn't crawl high enough in the stroller to get away from the sheep!

Jarel pushing the goats away from Kali.


Tyler feeding a goat. He didn't mind the animals and loved feeding them. But when one of the goats got in his face, he didn't like that and wanted to be held.


Jarel, Tyler and Mr. Camel.


Makena with a horse. She loved this horse and would have stayed all night if we would have let her.

This was Kali pretty much the entire time we were in the petting zoo. She didn't like it and kept asking me "Mom, can we leave now?"


Kali got brave and actually pet the bunny. She was actually smiling!


The very friendly bunny nibbling on Jarel's leg.


Jarel trying to get away from the bunny. I didn't get all the pictures I wanted because I was laughing so hard, but this bunny was seriously all over Jarel!
