The Davis County Fair was on our summer bucket list (we went to this fair a few years ago and loved it then as well), and I have been getting a little obsessed with checking everything off. We had a lot to do as it was the last Saturday before school starts, but we just HAD to do it. Right off the bat we found plenty of fun things to do. 
There was a booth that allowed the kids to hold all sorts of creepy things. There were tarantulas (I offered Palmer $1 if he would hold it and he totally refused! I wouldn't have either...) and scorpions and this enormous snake. The boys loved the snake, much to my surprise. 
Josh told us where to stand and when Palmer realized that he was the girl he was a little put out :) 
There was a huge army booth. I really want my boys to respect those who defend our country. I am so grateful to all of the men and women who serve their country and hope that the boys will also gain that gratitude. We talked to them for a while and the boys got to play in this huge REAL hummer! 
There was a booth that gave the boys all a free book! That may have been the highlight for the boys. 
I love pictures like this of the boys. 
Yet another highlight was riding these ponies (and it also helped us check off horseback riding on the ole bucket list!) 
The boys were thrilled about it! 
I love looking at the farm animals. There was a bunny out that the kids could pet. I was dying to pet it too! It looked so soft, but alas I am allergic to bunnies (random right?) 
McKay was so mesmerized by the chickens. It was so funny! For some reason they were really interesting to him. 
This was another thrill of the fair. Nerf dart guns! They wanted to stay at this booth all day! 
Such a fun last day of summer break!
