State Fair

Sammy and I have lived in Texas all of our life. How is it that Sammy's NEVER been to the State Fair? Now.. I can't say much since I've only been once, maybe twice but I can at least say that I've been:)

So this is a first for both of my boys. We had a wonderful time. It was a perfect day...beautiful weather, small crowds, good greasy foods and a ton a lasting memories. As soon as we walked in we saw a stand for red candy apples. Now that Might not seem like a big deal to anyone, however my sweet boy loves Max and Ruby and one of his favorite episodes involves Candy Apples. For about a week so Link would ask me for one. I looked everywhere and refused to get one at the grocery store because I wanted his first one to be "fresh" (which is very important at the McKamie household;). Linkoln would say, "Mommy its OK, Ruby has them on her front porch" (If only TV land would let me borrow one...my search would be over). So here we are..two minutes inside the State Fair and Link spots it. The picture says it all! It was funny to see him try to eat it....he preferred licking instead of biting. We also indulged in funnel cakes, Fletcher's corny dogs and anything and everything fried. It was awesome. Our first ride for the day was the ferris wheel. Now heights aren't my thing but how could I let my two favorite people get on something dangerous while I was safe and sound on the ground. It really wasn't that bad...besides Link loved it! Can't wait to go back next year!
