State Fair/BYU game

In mid October our good friends the Williams came up from San Antonio for a weekend. We went to the State Fair and the BYU vs TCU football game. We love the Williams. Matt and Dani got married only a few months before us, and have 2 kids about the same age as Lucy and Grant. We knew them back in college, and Dani and I are related some type of cousin or something. Anyway, it is always fun to spend time with them. The kiddos are getting old enough that they can play with each other instead of fighting over who gets to watch Dora. We also managed to get a babysitter so that just the adults could go to the football game. It was so fun to go out to eat and get some space from all the kids. The football game was fun, we lost, (boo!) but it was still fun.

The state fair was full of food! I don't even know all that we ate, but here is what I remember:

fried cookie dough
corny dog
pretzel
homemade root beer
brisket tacos
fried s'mores
fried frito pie

Needless to say it was good, but I felt sick by the time we got home!

I think the highlight for the adults was the food, but the kids loved the petting zoo. The feed the animals and all of them kept reaching for the baby pigs, but couldn't get them. I guess pigs are a big hit with kids!
