On Friday night, we went to the Wylie High School football game. It was fun for me to show Cooper where I went to school and tell him about Daddy's football days.
On Saturday morning, we headed downtown for the West Texas Fair Parade. It was a beautiful morning and a great parade. Cooper LOVED seeing all the bands, fire trucks, horses, clowns, etc.

| Can you sense Cooper's excitement? |
After lunch we headed over to the Abilene Zoo. They had done alot of improvements since the last time I went and I was really impressed. It is the perfect sized zoo for a toddler.

The monkeys were really fond of Cooper. It was hilarious!
 |
| Hadley loved seeing all the sights too! There was no way she was riding in that stroller! |
 |
| PaPa and Cooper took a ride on the train for a second look at the animals. |

That evening, we went to the West Texas Fair. I have so many fun memories of this fair from my childhood. It is so fun to get to share it with my kids too!

Cooper was even big enough for several rides this year! He loved it! Can't wait til he can ride the big rides with Mama!

This year we hit the jackpot in the Grandparent's Brag contest. Grandmommy and PaPa tried their hand at the first two entries and both Hadley and Cooper won first place!! Mom Mom Mart entered the picture of both of them and also won first place! Needless to say, we were very proud!
On Sunday morning we went to Grandmommy and PaPa's church and enjoyed a quick lunch with Mom Mom and PaPa Mart and Terri and Arlis.
Whew! What a fun whirlwind of a trip! Thanks for everything Grandmommy and PaPa!
** In an effort to keep this post positive I am choosing to leave out any information regarding the Aggie football loss and the flat tire I had on the way home. :(
