Hometown Fair

Several weeks ago we were treated to a night at the fair. My hometown has hosted the county fair each fall since before my grandmother was born. It has been years since Jimmie and I have been and the boys have never been. So this year we decided it was time to make the trip back home and experience the fair. Papa T and Nana met us there with my grandmother, Mama Connie. She had tuckered out by the time we took this photo, but it was fun to have her "along for the ride."
The boys rode all the kid rides and had a blast!
Thanks Nana & Papa T for buying the tickets!
Most of my pictures turned out blurry from all the action. So this is all I have.
AJ loved the cotton candy and his foot long corn dog. JJ liked the funnel cake.
It was fun to revisit a place with so many memories. Jimmie and I remembered our first date being at the county fair 17 years ago! Not much has changed since then. I hope we can make this recurring event for our boys to remember too.

This reminds me of how I feel about the FW Stock Show & Rodeo. :)
