State Fair of Texas

Kherington had a half day on a Wednesday which happened to be the day you could get into the State Fair or Texas for $3 plus 3 cans of food.  Ryan took the afternoon off and we headed there.  We opted to take the DART so we wouldn't deal with traffic on the way home.  It was the first day of October and it was HOT!  Like 90's hot...and we are those smart newbie Texas people that went out at the hottest part of the day.  We wandered around.  Enjoyed the kids area which was especially nice since it had free activities for the kiddos.

The kids went on a couple rides and played a couple arcade games where they won some prizes that made their day.  Jonathan sweated it out in the stroller. So hot!  In the back corner of the fair, we found a little corner with a little coloring table. People say the fair is all about the food.  We tried the corn dog and some Frito chili pie bites and some Icees.
