Fun at the Utah State Fair

Full Disclosure: Last night my dinner consisted of two cobs of roasted corn and one and a half candied apples (one red, 1/2 a cinnamon). This can only mean one thing - Fair Time!


Yeah... that was sort of piggy of me, but compared to the chocolate covered deep-fried bacon eaters, I don't feel so bad.

Uh... ew!

Please avert your eyes if tooting your own horn is offensive to you but...

I GOT RIBBONS!




But they didn't like this one:


(Which is totally okay because I love it)

We all had an awesome time! The kids ate and rode rides and ate some more. 



And Chris and I hung around the corn booth. LOL. J/K


We also got our Psycho Brayden with flash picture. What is this you ask? Every year I go to take a picture of B when he's finally tired enough to sit down and eat and he looks like a psycho in a nasty with-flash picture. See:


Don't believe me? Here's last years:


Okay, I'm sure I've bored you all plenty. Thanks for looking at my fair pics. I'm already excited about going again next year :-)

    The pictures crack me up!

    Hayden wants to enter the baking contests at our fair next year :D His look SO much better than the ones we saw featured this year. Can't wait until next summer so he can show off his skilz.

    Congrats on the ribbons as you totally deserve them!! I saw a show with Bobby Flay and on it was chocolate covered bacon....I guess it is really good; something about the saltiness of the bacon mixed with the chocolate. Go on an adventure next year...try the bacon, I bet you might surprise yourself :)

    Congrats on all your ribbons! Just think of the 4th place one as a way to make your wins patriotic ;)
