State Fair!

Last Thursday, Mark and I took Eli to his first NC State Fair. We had to miss last year because he was a tiny newborn. From the start, Eli loved it. The weather that evening was perfect and there was so much for him to see and hear.

We were able to catch a pig race, visit a LOT of animals, and eat a TON of yummy fair food. To Mark and I, the fair is mostly about the food. I mean, where else can you get fried oreos and fried pecan pie? Eli was able to enjoy a sampling of everything we ate too, and boy did he love that!

This year's fair experience definitely did not disappoint! All three of us are looking forward to next year's fun already!



So this is what a fried oreo looks like...

So excited about my frozen chocolate-covered banana with sprinkles! My favorite fair food!



Eli's eyes were locked onto Daddy's fried pecan pie!
