John, Laura, Kyle, Christopher (CJ) and Alyssa Mullen

State Fair of Texas

We headed out at nine o'clock and got to the state fair just as it was opening...ready for a day of fun!

The first stop was the Little Hands on the Farm exhibit where kids can pretend to be farmers...planting crops, feeding animals and driving a tractor. Here are the little farmers setting out on their adventure (with their helpers of course!)CJ is riding a tractor and Kyle is planting his "carrot" seed.

Then we went to the petting zoo area...where Kyle and CJ both fed the animals. Kyle was still a little unsure of himself but he tried. CJ grinned from ear to ear...except for when the baby cow licked him...he wanted us to clean him up right then!

In the food and fiber pavillion, we went through the dr pepper museum, saw cotton being separated from the seeds, played with wheat seeds, and colored in the Dallas Farmers Market section.

Then came the RIDES!
