(Not really... but definitely next year!!)
You rode rides!
You were MESMERIZED by the all the lights, sounds, and music!
You played your first game and even won the "Choice" prize (Large Blue Nemo). However, you preferred the "Medium" prize (Light up Sabre Sword) Chace got instead... ahahah! So... we swapped for the sword and you BOTH were happy as clams!
We MIGHT have ummmm... allowed ourselves multiple attempts in order to get the "Choice" fish.... but maybe that's why you were being honest, and wanted the "Medium" prize instead. LOL!
we OF COURSE had to make a pit stop at the Hall of State!
Finally, a GROUP PICTURE at the end of the night.
with and w/o flash... LOL!
By the time we got home, you were knocked out and ready for bed!
Can't wait until State Fair 2012!!!

10/23/11 State Fair e-mail update:
By the Numbers
The 125th edition of the State Fair of Texas will go down in the history books as the second most successful season in the event’s history. Fairgoers spent more than $35 million on food and rides during the 24 days. This amount, which represents revenue from coupon sales (State Fair currency for food and rides), was slightly less than last year’s all-time high of $37 million. Top concert draws on the Chevrolet Main Stage were Randy Travis, La Mafia and KC and the Sunshine Band. More than 115,000 history buffs toured the Texas! exhibit at the Hall of State, presented by the Dallas Historical Society. More than 41,000 auto enthusiasts took advantage of the Chevy Ride & Drive at Chevrolet Town Square.
Next year's State Fair dates are Sept. 28-Oct. 21, 2012, during which time The Addams Familywill be the featured show at the Music Hall at Fair Park. Visit www.bigtex.com for information.
