We finally meet...

Yep, last night was my very first visit to the Texas State Fair! It was so nice to finally meet Big Tex! We had SO much fun eating our way through the fair grounds...I can't wait to go back next year! Here are a few pictures from our visit with the Rectors...



I was so excited to finally try a Fletcher's Corny Dog...it was delicious!

Karen and I tasting the fried butter....it was not as disgusting as it sounds. It's really more like a fried roll with a small dollop of butter inside.

First class signage...

Fried Snickers...

Fried cookie dough...my personal favorite!

Enormous pig...I felt about that large after eating so much fried food!

Pig races...



Riding the super slide with Karen...I won.

I ♥ this picture...read why here.

Two things I cannot believe:
1. You had never been to the fair.
2. You got Karen to eat fried butter. The real question, did she eat a corn dog??

Love you!

Answer to number 2:
ABSOLUTELY NOT. In fact, I starved the rest of the way through the fair while our 3 friend ate their way through it.
BAH!
