State Fair

Its October and that mean its fair time. As soon as the fair comes around the boys start begging us to go. This year we headed out on the last Friday the fair was open. Ryder stayed home which made for a much easier and productive evening. By now we have our plan down. Park, get in, hit the midway for rides, then grab some tasty treats before heading home. Everything went off without a hitch. If you ask Brandon he would tell you he could have done without the $30 valet parking. Oh well, it was that or keep circling the fair grounds. At least that way we were nice and close to the car when we were  ready to leave:)

As usual we the boys loved all the rides. You do have to be picky though since each ride cost $5 per boy. And the last time I checked we didn't have a money tree growing in our backyard.

Up first was the Love Bug. A wildly fast ride. Even Parker's hair got blown away.





Brandon and I even went on a ride with the boys. Good thing I had to hold Parker down in his seat virtually the hole time around every twist and turn.



This year our tasty treats consisted of fried queso and funnel cakes, a state fair must!! The powdered sugar gets a little messy, but its worth it!




Finally, before heading home we snapped a quick picture of the boys in front of the Texas Star ferris wheel. The first picture gives you a good idea of just how big it is.
