The Utah State Fair

On September 10, we went to the State Fair with Brady and Jillian and then met my parents there. Lydia loved the fair. She loves to be outside exploring new things. We started by going to Lego Land thing that they had there. She enjoyed playing with the legos.She absolutely loves animals so she had fun looking at them all. She kept getting mad at us because we wouldn't let her run p to the animals and pet them all.It started down pouring while we were there so we got stuck in some of the indoor exhibits for a while. Lydia definitely just wanted to be outside.Once we made it back outside she was very excited because we let her jump in the puddles.We also ran into some geese dressed up as baseball players. Lydia was able to feed them some Mountain Dew. She thought it was so much fun!My dad took her on the pony ride. She loved it. She didn't need anyone to hold onto her or anything.Lydia loved the Little Hands on the Farm area. She got to wear a little apron and carry a bucket and walk around. She started by gathering corn and then feeding it to the cows. She was able to pick apples, milk a cow, ride a tractor, gather eggs, garden, and some other farm things. She had so much fun and seemed to think that she was so big. It was so much fun watching her.Lydia was able to get the ultimate fair experience, food and all.We also went and saw the rodeo. Lydia got excited when the first horses came out for the flag ceremony. She is so fun to watch when she is watching animals.My dad also bought her some fun toys that she enjoyed playing with during the rodeo.Once the rain stopped it ended up being a great day for the fair and rodeo. We were glad to be able to take Lydia to do something fun again.
