Big Tex

The Hunters have quite a bit of traveling coming up in the month of October (NM, Korea, Orlando), so Kennedy and I are trying to cram in as many fun fall activities as we can while we are in town.

On Monday we met up with our friends Alice and Mason to go to the State Fair of Texas. We didn't really know what to expect but hoped there would be a handful of exhibits to entertain the little ones, and some fried deliciousness for the mommies. First stop was a petting zoo. Kennedy really enjoyed this part and got to see some animals she hasn't ever been that close to, like cows, a giraffe and an ostrich (there was quite a variety of animals and livestock). The main attraction were the piglets. Kennedy and I could have watched them all afternoon.

There were a handful of rides the little ones could go on. Of course Kennedy did not want to go alone, so I squeezed in the 'roller coaster' car with her. And by squeeze, I mean fit perfectly in the car intended for a small child. She had fun and I know is going to have a blast at Disneyworld at the end of the month.

Mason, Kennedy and Big Tex.

They'll sit next to each other, but we couldn't get them both looking at the same time. 

Wheeeee!
