A weekend outside

It has been beautiful weather the past few days, so we decided to spend some time outside. Colbi loves to be outside (like pretty much every other child) and luckily, we had a few activities to do.

Our city was having a fall festival, and I scored some awesome new necklaces for pretty cheap. Colbi rode around in her stroller and was happy as could be. I was going to take her the park, instead we stopped off at a nice little scenic place downtown. 

Flashback! Last year she was just 3 months old!

This was across the street from a firehouse and they had a call while we were taking a stroll, so she got to watch the fire truck and ambulance light up and ride off. She wasn't sure what to think. 

I also took her along for a stop at Hobby Lobby and Ross. She was so thrilled. 

And then, this morning we got up and went to the State Fair!

I'm so glad we woke up early and went because it got SO crowded.

We saw lots of animals.........

And walked around........

"Hey, that guy is really tall!"

Is it just me or does Big Tex look tanner than before? 

We ate some, but not a ton.  We mainly went because we scored some free tickets and Dave hasn't been to the fair in over twenty years. Can you believe that?!

We went to the fair every year almost growing up, so I'm hoping we keep that tradition going in the Petty household. Although, we by pass the rides.Not because they are a waste of money (in my opinion), but because they make this Mommy WAY to nervous! 

Hope you got outside some time this weekend and enjoyed this awesome Texas weather!
