The Texas State Fair

With John, Yvonne and Beatrix visiting us, we figured we'd take them to the Texas State Fair to get a feel of "real America" and some fried food. We had fun walking around and checking out all the sights and booths of the fair. It was a pretty warm day and little Olivia slept in the stroller or in the sling, but was a trooper throughout the day. Sofia loved the petting zoo and we spent a lot of time feeding and petting the animals before moving on to try the fried s'more (my personal favorite). We also split a funnel cake later in the day. Since they are from England, John and Yvonne had never even heard of a funnel cake before. We stopped by Big Tex and then ended up at the ferris wheel, which CK and Sofia rode while we sat in the shade. We were all pretty beat from the heat, so we headed home after that. It was a fun day!
