We took the family to the State Fair of Texas a few weeks ago. Clare and Ian had a ball. Graeme enjoyed it as well, but from the stroller - poor guy always gets the raw deal. AND we took no pictures of him :(. There were a few limitations on the rides which was frustrating. Ian could not ride anything he wanted to, even with a parent. We finally found some cars that he could drive as long as I rode with him. As you can see, I'm holding on to his shoulders from behind because it was so jerky I thought he might conk his little head.
Clare rode some whales while practicing her beauty queen wave. I don't even remember her doing it. That's my girl!
Both kids were able to sit in the driver's seat of a fire truck and talk to the firemen.
Since this is Texas - instead of the typical corn dogs - we ate burritos for lunch next to the Cotton Bowl. Then, on the way out, we stopped for ice cream and the obligatory funnel cake. (My family knows that I don't go to any outdoor festival or event without getting a funnel cake.) When it was all said and done, we were glad we went, but decided that it was something we could do every other year. Taking three kids is an quite an endeavor.
