We joined Tim and Shara for one of their favorite traditions on Saturday. Every year they drive up to Dallas to go to the Texas/Oklahoma game and the state fair. Mark's parents flew in on Friday to stay with Brody. Mark picked them up at the airport around 4. They picked up CPK for dinner and then we got on the road around 7pm. We got to Dallas around 10:30pm and pretty much went straight to bed. We woke up bright and early the next day around 6:30am and got to the Cotton Bowl around 7:30am. We walked around the fair and got some yummy food before we headed into the game. We had four tickets but not together so Tim and Mark sat together and Shara and I sat together. We had great seats. The game was close but in the end Texas pulled out the win. We were so excited. After the game we hung around the fair a little longer to let the crowds and the traffic die down before we tried to get on the road again. We ended up getting home around 9:30. Mark's mom had made some really yummy pulled pork and twice baked potatoes. I was exhausted after a very long day and headed to bed. We had so much fun and hope to make it one of our traditions. Thanks Tim and Shara for bringing us along!
