The Star of Texas Fair and Rodeo

It is that week in Austin where everything happens at once -- spring break, SXSW, and the fair and rodeo. I don't get a spring break anymore, and I hate SXSW. But this is our third year to take Liv to the Austin fair and rodeo. She has always enjoyed it, but this year she embraced the experience with special enthusiasm.

She informed us on the way there, that she intended to do "everything."

First, the pony rides.

Then, the petting zoo. There was a baby llama that was so cute.

Then, the rides. In years past, she has been a little weary of the rides, but this year, she wanted to ride them all, including the ferris wheel and roller coaster.

And finally, the food.

Just look how big that girl is!
