Texas State Fair

Well we did it and finally made it out the the State Fair of Texas the last weekend it was open! Jere and I always go to the fair each year but last year Lilly was just born and we didn't get to go. So this year it was fun to take her on her first state fair adventure! We had a blast, but it turned night on us pretty quickly so a lot of our pictures are in the dark. :(

thankfully he was lit up at night!

L's favorite part: the petting zoo!

She saw porcupines...

a mama kangaroo and her joey...

zebras...

lots of goats, big...

and small...

(one goat tried to eat her dress while she was petting him!)

goats, bunnies, sheep, geese, and chicks!

We saw the ferris wheel and it was so pretty lit up in the night sky!

We strolled around

and giggled together!

Of course had to have a Fletcher's corny dog!

Lilly loved it!

Mel and I of course had to satisfy the dare devil in us and ride a fun ride!

All in all it was a quick but fun trip to the state fair! Hopefully this will be a fun family tradition!
