Fair Day (or maybe fair night)

October 2nd was Quade's school's fair day...which means that school is cancelled so students can go to the Texas State Fair.
Since Bruce just started at his job he couldn't take a weekday off. But he could leave work a little early. So we decided to do a post-nap, evening trip to the fair.
It just so happened that there was a major storm headed towards downtown dallas the night we decided to go.
we went anyway!
Because of the storm we parked right by the entrance, the weather was cool and there was nobody there. Perfect!
At school quade has been learning about the fair and he thought he wanted to ride the ferris wheel. He changed his mind when we arrived.


We went to the bird show...the first time we had been.

I was a little distracted as i watched the storm arrive.


As soon as the show was over we sought shelter and ate a little dinner.


After only 15 minutes the storm passed and the sky was beautiful!


Tried fried cookie dough and fried butter...enough said!

Breath-taking midway

Quade's first ride...when it whipped him around he decided he wasn't a fan.

Price wanted to ride all the rides (including the big kid ones)

Convinced quade that the bumper cars were not scary and he LOVED them!

It was a great time and we made some great memories!!
