Texas State Fair!

This week Jonathan and I decided to go to the fair! We really just wanted to go to see if our soon to be new car (acadia denali) was at the auto show....we have only seen pictures online. We also had two free tickets....since I am a teacher I got a free ticket and his mom is too so we used hers! Thanks Karon! ;) We went during the week after work which was so nice! We parked super close and it wasn't even that crowded! Oh and did I mention the perfect weather...AMAZING! I heart fall!

We were kind of having our doubts that we would get to see what our car would look like in person but once we made it to where all the GMC cars were at we spotted it!!! I was beyond excited!! Unfortunately they had it all blocked off so we couldn't really get too close to it! We should have our new car by the beginning of November! (Marina....can you believe I still drive that red honda...almost 11 years later!!!! haha...I remember when we both go our red cars our senior year! Oh so long ago!)

You definitely can't go to the fair without getting a Fletcher's Corny Dog and taking a picture in front of Big Tex! Oh so fattening and good!!! 

I also probably added about 10 more pounds when we decided to try a few other fried foods! While we were waiting in line to get our corny dog this lady was talking about how good the fried butter was and that it tasted like a really buttery biscuit! Of course I was like I do like biscuits and thought that I would definitely have to try it. 

Boy was that lady wrong! It was so disgusting!!! It was like eating raw cinnamon/honey dough with butter! I only ate half of one of them. (Oh, by the way, Jonathan and I shared all the foods we tried! lol)

We also tried the fried frito pie! Now I was not to thrilled to try this but Jonathan insisted that we do....

and it was SO GOOD! I would definitely recommend this! It may not look good but it was!! 

Up next was the new fried margarita! They got a small plastic margarita glass and put pieces of funnel cake inside, poured a little bit of margarita on it, and topped it with whip cream....

This was NOT GOOD!!! It tasted like pieces of soggy bread in some nastiness! Blah!!!! Jonathan thought it was ok though.

Our last thing we decided to try was the fried pizza. I am not sure if this was new or not. It was just a regular slice of pizza with some batter over it then they just fried it.

Now this was really good! I could eat this all the time but then again I would balloon up like an elephant!! Out of everything we tried this was the best by far! 

And nope if you are wondering, we didn't try the fried beer. It probably would have been nasty anyways! ;) 

The Cotton Bowl is right in the middle of the fair!! The site of this Saturday's UT/OU game! We are not going (maybe one year! Jonathan has been before though.) but we do hope UT pulls through with a win. Realistically though I highly doubt it! But GO LONGHORNS anyways! 

3 Months!

I can't believe that I have been a wife for 3 months now! Yay! I love my new "job"! So this month I have decided to post my top ten reasons why I have the best husband ever! Sorry if it's a little too corny for ya! ;) 

10. He is so AMAZING at math! I know it sounds nerdy but this totally comes in handy when it comes to finances!! Before we got married he helped me with my budget and did an awesome job at it! I am so blessed that he knows what he is doing when it comes to money! Plus, when we have kids and they get passed 2nd grade math, then he can help them do their homework! haha! ;) 

9. He thinks that I am the prettiest girl he knows! He is always telling me I look beautiful even when I know I don't! So glad he likes me for who I am! 

8. He knows about computers...yes I know...nerdy but hey I never have to pay someone to fix computers anymore! No more GEEEK Squad for me or whatever they are called! hahaha! 

7. He is definitely a Mr. Fix It! He seriously can fix ANYTHING! Before we got married his refrigerator started leaking water and wasn't working and he fixed it! And just this last weekend our he fixed the shower in our extra bathroom...it didn't have any hot water! He has taught me its better to try and learn how to fix it than pay for a new one...unless you can't really fix it! ;) 

6. He wants to always make sure I am one happy girl! Pretty much this whole list sums up what he does to try and make me happy! Oh, and he helps me hang fall decorations too! ;) He is doing a darn good job too!

5. He will go to Canton Trade Days! Seriously...what guy would drop everything to go to Canton Trade Days and watch their wife shop for 4 hours and hold everything they have bought! Now this might be the only time he does but at least he did it once! 

4. He works really hard! He works so much to provide for the both of us and to give us a better life for the future! I am also just very thankful he has a job!

3. He has a wonderful family! I definitely couldn't have asked for better in-laws! They are so welcoming and loving! It also helps that Jonathan doesn't have a sister, because that makes me the only girl besides his mom! ;) 

2. He loves me! What more can I say!

1. He loves God!!! What more can I say!

Of course there are many many more reasons but ten is good enough for the blog! And I can't do a post without a picture so here is the very first picture I ever saw of him! 

Oh I love him so much! 

Weekend in San Antonio!!

About two weeks ago Jonathan and I spent the weekend in SA to celebrate one of my bestest friend's daughter's first birthday...make sense! ;) It was so good to see D'Lynn and Brooke over the weekend. I definitely wish we could have spent more time together! I am also very thankful for my wonderful husband who drove me all the way down to SA so I wouldn't have to go alone! He also braved a 1 year old's birthday party!

Here are some pics of the weekend:

How can you not love this face....

Brooke definitely loved her birthday cake!

So did Jonathan.... ;)

The next morning we ate breakfast at Cracker Barrel...Brooke was still recuperating from her party I think! ;)

Happy Birthday Miss Brooke!!! I can't wait to see you celebrate many more!

Oh and Happy Birthday to her momma too! ;) Love you!
