Saturday we hit the LA County Fair. I think all of LA had the same idea. It was packed with lots of people. Which meant lots of traffic. But once we finally made it there, it was well worth it!
At 1st the kids weren't sure what to think as you can see by the look on their faces (top pic). but as soon as we made it through the crowds to the farm animals. They were so happy! It was fun! Zach was surprised that roosters really say cock-a-doodle
do. Lauren, as many of you know has been delayed in her speech, due to all the ear infections she had the 1st year of her life. and since she finally got tubes in her ears, and about 6 months of speech therapy, she is now talking a lot more. However she is so stuck on naming everything either
dada, mama, or baby. It's
hilarious. I can repeat the name of the animal a million times and she still insists on calling it a
dada, mama, or baby. I was called a cow and pig! She is so funny.
They had tractors for the kids to ride around on. Zach and Lauren loved that. Zach thought it so nice of the fair to have free tractor rides! It makes me laugh how big he is getting and that he is so aware of those things.
After that of course we had to enjoy the yummy
slushies. And play a game. Zach was happy he won a stuffed animal all by himself popping a balloon with a dart. We skipped the rides because I had no desire to wait in the long lines in the hot sun. And why after we had the free tractor rides!!! Just joking. but it was a fun family day at the fair. We then had to hurry home for Gerry to of course watch the
BYU football game. But I refuse to discuss football on the blog. So we won't go on about that. Unless next time it's a big win! Anyways it was a fun family fair day!!
