State Fair

This year we decided to go to the State Fair. Zach and I had never been, and Jason said he has not been since he was a kid. So last Saturday we got up and headed up to Salt Lake. We wanted to be there when it opened so we could enjoy before it got crowded and HOT!!!

See all the animals was probably one of our favorite things to do. Pigs are really PINK!!! They were the cleanest pigs we ever saw. Yes, the smell was bad, but not horrible.

A cute little goat. We were able to see a judging contest. It was interesting to see what the judges look for and how excited children are when one of their "goats" wins. This little goat was quite a talker.

Here we are waiting to watch the bear show. They had a food vendor where you could get a slurpee like drink. You had about 15 choices. Watermelon was my favorite and Zach liked the orange.


I heard that they had Turkey Legs at the fair. Luckly we found them right next to the bear show. So after the show we headed over for lunch. They were very hot, but very good We also had the best fresh cut french fries. I can't believe all the awesome food you can find at the fair. We have decided to make this a yearly event.

A New Man!!!

For a couple of years now, Zach has been asking for contacts. Well this year after talking with the eye doctor we decided to let him get some. He was so excited when he had his appointment to get them ordered. He was hoping to get them before pitcure day at school. His wish came true. They arrived the day before.

The Eye Clinic is really good with 1st time eye contact wearers. They do a little class with the paitent and make sure they are comfortable before sending them home. Of course mom had to take pitcures. First all because I take pics of everything, please I got a new camera.

Putting in the first contact. He got it in the first time. The office said they have never seen anyone to that before.
Learning how to take care of his contacts.


He passed his test and I have to say he looks very HANDSOME!!!!
