State Fair of Texas

Before I begin....Please keep Ms. Chelsea and her family in your prayers. Her mom died early Sunday morning after a long, courageous battle with cancer.

















Today we (Dad, Taylor, and I) took the kids to the State Fair in Dallas. It was so much fun! As I reflect on today, it was another one of those many days where I am truly amazed at these 3 children! They are SO good natured, so easy-going...it seems no matter the circumstance.

We loaded up around 8:30 and were parked by 10:30. Avery and Adam napped briefly, but Aaron didn't sleep at all. We were concerned because Aaron tends to let you know it when he hasn't gotten enough sleep or food! But, not one cry out of him the whole day! The kids just people watched, ate many different kinds of food, watched Dad win prizes, and even won a prize themselves! They got to pick a duck out of the water and get a corresponding prize size. Adam and Avery got a small prize and Aaron got a medium prize. We came home with 5 more stuffed animals!

We walked through exhibit buildings and let the kids push the strollers for a while too. We left around 2:00 this afternoon. It took Aaron about 4 minutes to be asleep once we got in the car! Adam and Avery fell asleep shortly thereafter.

Once we got home the kids just played, ate a good supper, got baths, and now are sound asleep. What a blessed, wonderful day!

You are brave to go to the Fair with them. Did you get stopped a lot with the triplets?
