State Fair of Texas

Another fun family adventure for the month of October was Logan's first trip to the State Fair of Texas.  We had to let him try some of the delicious fair food so he munched on some turkey, vanilla ice cream, roasted corn and a couple of bites of a Fletcher's corn dog.  My little animal lover checked out all of the adorable animals in the Children's Barnyard, fed some of them and even pet a little pony.  One of our last stops after a long day was at the carousel, which he was fascinated by.  This is by far, the best time I have had at the fair only because we had Logi to share the experience with.

This was Logan's first taste of ice cream.  He wasn't too sure about it at first but quickly realized it was pretty yummy.  The best part was that the ice cream cones were free!   
I think he had a little bit of a brain freeze!

He had no fear to reach right in and pet the animals
That is a real pumpkin!

Love his toothy smile

 


The corn dog was yummy!

Dallas World Aquarium

We finally decided to venture over to the Dallas World Aquarium with Logan before Sins starts back to work.  We went right before closing which worked out great because there was only 2 other families there!  It is so much fun to see things through Logan's eyes and watch his reaction to everything new.  No surprise, he was interested in all the different birds and just as interested in the aquariums.

Logan growled at these little guys


Logan loved watching the turtles and manatees swim right in front of him.  He didn't want to leave this exhibit!




My little family

This was a smaller aquarium with colorful little fish he wanted to talk to.

Southlake Oktoberfest

The first weekend in October had gorgeous weather for Logan's first time at Oktoberfest in Southlake.  We went with my parents which made the day even better since my mom is finally out of the hospital and feeling a bit better.  Traditionally Scarlet runs in the weiner dog races but this year she had to miss out since she has been battling a back injury.  We watched a couple of the dog races, checked out some of the craft booths and then we headed for restaurant row.  Sins and I started with one of our absolute favorites, roasted corn, followed by tator-twisters, bratwursts and finished up with soft serve ice cream.  YUM!  Logan had not experienced the yumminess of roasted corn until today and boy did he love it!  He was squealing for more corn and more of my mom's delicious grilled chicken.  Our finicky little eater has suddenly turned into a bottomless pit!
Today was a perfect fall family outing.  I am looking forward to the rest of the fun festivities coming up in the best month of the entire year, October.

This was his first time to walk around in shoes!


He loved riding in the wagon next to his Hannah-Banana
