Sarpy County Fair

Nothing says summer to us like county fairs. This week we hit up another two fairs to bring our grand total to 4 since we moved out here. Don't worry, we still have our county fair and several others in the area that we may go to as well as the State fair here and in Iowa- I hear the Iowa State Fair has a Llama show- how could anyone pass that up.
Zaida has this thing for always wanting to carry around something while we walk around, lately it has been either a rock or a stick. If she doesn't have one she will stop and sit on the ground at the first one she finds and pick it up, if neither of those things are around then she will pick up anything that doesn't seem to belong on the ground. After enjoying this wood chip for awhile she deemed it necessary to share it with the horse.She also liked petting any of the animals that would stick their head out of their pens, although I don't really approve of the petting of goats, in this instance I thought it was alright since we made sure to pet the sheep first. After petting the animals she then decide it was funner to walk by the pens and any goat that was sticking their head out she would give them a good pat, she would then squeal and the goats would jerk back into their pen.

hehe cute :) we went to the zoo the other day and one of the goats kept licking Emma's hand... not sure she liked it though :)

Is Zaida really walking? Or were you referring to you walking while holding her? Alissa isn't anywhere near walking. Those pictures are cute. I'm sure she's going to love animals. She doesn't have a choice, right

I just read this post out loud to Justin. We are both having a good laugh. Miley has taken to holding something in her hands at all times too. It's usually chap stick or lip gloss. I can just picture Zaida at the fair. So funny. wish we were enjoying it with you.

Aha! You have a blog and I just found it. Seems like you are adjusting well to your new home. Sammy and I just moved to Cedar City and it'll take some getting used to. Zaida is as adorable as ever!
