Henry VanDyke

October in Dallas means that it’s time for the State Fair. Since Henry was too small to venture in public last year, this was his first trip to the fair. We went twice, once with Samuel and his parents and once with Erin’s family.

Henry’s favorite part was the petting zoo, though Fletcher’s Corny Dogs was a close second.

Coloring at the fair (not that exciting unless you’re a grandparent).

We took a little trip this weekend which included a stop by the Fort Worth Zoo. Going to the zoo in the middle of the July with a 10-month old sounded pretty scary to us so we set our expectations low. Our goal was to stay 45 minutes.

Well, we managed to stay for nearly two hours and Henry even seemed to notice two or three of the animals. It was very hot though so afterwards we were ready leave and enjoy the air conditioned car ride home.
