State Fair of Texas 2014

We ended up with an afternoon free on the last day of the Fair. A was at Six Flags with the church youth group, so the rest of us headed out. We took the obligatory walk through the auto show where the boys checked out sports cars. B practiced his Heisman stance. Next on the list was corny dogs.

We spent way too much time in the midway. B played lots of games. J tried multiple times on the shoot the star with the bb gun game. He came very close, maybe next year. They both rode the bumper cars and B rode a couple of little rides. He's still my little boy who loves motorcycles.

On our way out we walked back through the auto show so the boys could drive a simulation video game. They ended up being too short. We found a pinball machine instead and played for free. I was the queen of pinball and beat them all. All the boys want a machine at home!

We grabbed an ice cream on the way out. It was a great visit to the Fair.

B is in third grade this year, so he got to go on the State Fair field trip and I got to chaperone. It wasn't as good as the other two times. The people at the fair were not as organized as previous times. There was a lot of walking to a place, figuring out where we were suppose to go and then waiting for something to start. I had B and two other boys to watch. One of them kept disappearing. I had to go to the teacher multiple times and tell her I couldn't find him. At least she knows the kid and knew it wasn't do to lack of attention on my part. B was sad because he wanted to go ride the rides and eat a corny dog. Maybe next year!
