State Fair

So I went to the Utah State Fair a couple weeks ago. It was pretty standard fair stuff- rides and fatty food. I went early in the day with my friend Kristen and her son Carter. The first thing we did was eat. I had an awesome corn on the cob and a deep fried Twinkie! We walked around and looked at the animals and other exhibits.
Here is Carter with the tigers.

Then came the best part of the fair!! We went to the Freak Show!

Later in the day, I came back to the fair with Matt. We rode on a couple rides that were really fun but being that I had only eaten a corn on the cob and a deep fried Twinkie that day, I didn't feel so hot after the ride. Other than that I had a pretty good day at the fair.





**On a completely different note...I just wanted to post a quick warning on the dangers of Ding Dong wrappers. Unless you eat Ding Dongs on a regular basis you are probably as unaware as I was that they are wrapped in foil, not plastic. I little while back I was eating a Ding Dong and had only unwrapped it half way because I only had one hand free. It was kind of warm in my apartment and so the chocolate on the outside was beginning to melt and the Ding Dong slipped out of the wrapper and rolled down the front of my white shirt. In the process of trying to stop it from falling down my shirt, I tried to catch it with my mouth but it still fell out. I sat there for a moment, annoyed with the chocolate on my shirt, and thought that my lip felt kind of funny. Sure enough, the foil had cut my lip! And I was bleeding! I wish I had taken a picture to show my damaged lip but unfortunately I had not. So the moral of this story is NEVER LEAVE DING DONG'S IN THE WRAPPER WHILE YOU EAT THEM! hahaha! Man I felt like such a dumb ass.
