The Texas State Fair is what a fair should be. It is large, it is filled with fried foods, silly dog shows, barnyard animals and enough carnies to cause a year of nightmares. I have never attended a state fair as glorious as the one in Texas. In celebration of our anniversary we packed up the kids and spent the whole day at the fair.

I’m not sure if I could properly summarize the experience so I’ll let the pictures do the talking (make sure you scroll over the “notes” icon on the bottom right corner of the pictures to read comments). However, we spent about $125 for the day and at the time I was feeling maddeningly ripped off, but now as I sit in the glow of the day I think it was worth every penny.
