Busy Busy Weekend

We headed back to East Texas on Saturday to help celebrate PawPaw's Birthday. We enjoyed lunch with all the family then hopped back in the car to go to Arlington and visit our friends that were in town from Florida.  It was lots of fun to hang out with everyone!

 The girls both passed out on the journey from East TX to Arlington, E always sleeps with her bunny on her head. I'm not sure why or how she actually breathes but she always sleeps like this.
 After unsuccessfully trying to wake up Elliott, Berkley decided she might as well get a little shut-eye too.
 Sunday morning we headed to the State Fair as soon as it opened. The weather was wonderful! The girls had such a great time. 
 This was their first ride and one of their favorites. The spinning balloons- they actually call them the teacups since it is similar to the teacups at Disney. But these go up in the air too!


 The NASCAR ride was their other favorite. It goes in a circle but zooms around the turns snapping their little heads back and creating the biggest smiles I've ever seen. 

 Here they are just after a turn. B's mouth is kinda blocked by the bar- but it is wide open. They also started putting their arms up in the air like they were on a roller coaster. It was too cute!

 Playing the fishing game
 E was dying to do the bumper cars. HUGE waste of money- the basically spent the entire time caught in a cluster of small children.
 This game was throwing a dart at balloons- the guy working it was so sweet after a few of B's attempts he just had her hold the dart and he blew up a balloon and popped it on her dart. Surprisingly they are both still walking around with their fair prizes 3 days later.

 E actually hit the blocks twice- but didn't knock the bottom one back.  One of those tricky ones.
 We let them eat their cotton candy on the way home. It was a huge hit - it looked like a stuffed bear had been ripped apart between the mess in both of their seats.

You did have a busy weekend! It sounds like the fair was a lot of fun, I'm wondering if we should attempt it this year?!
