State Fair

Fall is here and I love this time of year for so many reasons...the weather starts to get cooler, leaves change colors, pumpkin patches open, and the State Fair
I was so excited for the fair this year, bc Eli is older and I just knew that he would love it!  We went with GiGi and PaPa, on a Wednesday so that we didn't have to fight the crowds, and since Ryan doesn't really care for the fair it worked out well, going during the week. 
The first stop in the fair was the petting zoo...there were a ton of kids there that day, but we managed to feed a few animals and take some pics.  Eli loved petting all the animals!
My dad always likes to take a picture with E everywhere they go new together.  They started the tradition last year of taking a pic with the John Deer tractors at the fair. 
We ate a lot of great fair food, first which was a corny dog...yum yum!  This was E's first time to taste a corn dog, he wasn't a big fan.  He just doesn't know what he is missing!!!
Our day was definitely packed with lots of fun...we saw Big Tex, Eli played in the big sandbox, we looked at all the new cars, and E got to go through the Little Hands Farm.  It was so cute to watch him with all the activities they had the kids do.  I can't wait to take him back next year!
Check out my little Farm Boy
We were there all day, and E did so well that we decided to stay for the parade and laser light show.  It was a great day at the Fair!
