first trip to the state fair and cotton bowl

this time last year was the height of swine flu, so there wasn't a snowball's chance we were taking our brand-new baby boy out to the fair. sooo, his first trip happened last weekend. and my-oh-my did we have fun!! we saw the ferris wheel, big tex (who was a big hit with link), and he loved seeing all the rides that spin and play loud music. he loves anything loud and crazy, much like his parents. ;)

we also took him to the baylor v tech game. we lucked out at the last second with some VIP lounge seating (read: place for a one-year old to run around) and decided to give it a whirl. he did great! he would sit for periods and watch the game, the band, the people, then he would get up and run around like a wild man! it worked out great and i think he ate about 5 of the complementary brownies. he was WIRED! ;)
