Tonight was the night when kids get into the fair free and adults get in for the kids price, so we thought it would be a good day to go back to the fair. Thankfully there was no rain today. We started off by going back to Little Hands on the Farm at the request of the kids, and then we got to do the giant slide.
We went and got some tickets for the rides, because the big kids each got a ticket for a free ride with their reading forms that they turned in, but the little kids didn’t have free tickets. We walked around for a bit and decided on the snake roller coaster for the older kids.
I love how Ethan’s hair is flying in the wind. 🙂
Since Kyle took the older kids on the Snake, I got to take the little kids on a little kiddie train.
Then we let the kids try throwing some darts at some balloons to pop them, and each of them popped something or at least got a prize for trying.
We then went to the general store to redeem the free drink coupons that they kids received with their reading prizes. Then we wandered around trying to find a ride that we could use up the last of our tickets on, without having to buy a whole bunch more. We ended up needing to buy just a couple more tickets so that each of us could go down a big slide (but not as big as the giant slide).
Lydia LOVED the slide:
Adam enjoyed just chillin:
We also let the kids play the game where you try to throw ping pong balls into glass bowls filled with water. They got enough balls in the bowls to win two goldfish.
We finished up the evening by wandering around and looking at the displays in the agriculture building, and looking at the birds and rabbits.
After seeing the last of the animals and exhibits, we got some twisted taters, went and picked up our fish, and it was time to go home. We went to load the kids up in the car before splitting up the taters, but when Kyle pulled Adam out of his stroller, he made a dive for them.
Thus ended our adventures at the Utah State Fair for this year.
