Texas State Fair!

We went to the Texas State Fair last Thursday with my sister and her friend! It was tons 'o fun! Not only was it the day before Texas/OU weekend, but it was also Senior Citizens Day (seniors pay a discounted price)! For those of you who know how much I love elderly people, I really enjoyed this added bonus! Dave, my sister and her friend all took the afternoon off so we could enjoy it while it wasn't so crowded. One of the best parts of the fair was that we didn't have to pay for parking or our tickets!! Because Brittany's friend works for GM (a big sponsor of the fair), he had free passes. Did I mention that as we were pulling into our parking place I realized that we had forgotten Katelyn's stroller?? She was such a champion walker and piggyback rider! While at the fair, we watched a dog show, walked through a petting zoo, and a took a tour of a kid-friendly farming exhibit! We went to a car show, and although we originally went for Dave to see the cars, Katelyn loved getting in and out of them and pretending she was "driving." It was so cute! We ate funnel cakes and corn dogs, and Katelyn especially loved looking at the ferris wheel from wherever we happened to be on the fairgrounds.
