Funnel Cakes & Cowboy Boots

Last month Dave and I went to Sweeny for a weekend of fun at the Brazoria County Fair. I had not been to the fair since I graduated from high school and it was a perfect day to be at a fair, great weather, fun company, and lots of cowboys and cowgirls all decked out. :)

We helped out in the Sweeny Christian School funnel cake booth for the day and I will say that 16 1/2 hours on your feet makes for a long day! I am so glad that we went and making funnel cakes & fried oreos are not hard at all. I was at the window mostly taking orders, running into old friends from school, and hearing funny stories. I tried to take pictures throughout the day but we stayed busy, so here is what I was able to get on my camera.

My dad making the batter..... He is having so much fun..... Yummy. Makes you want a funnel cake, right?Getting everything ready inside the booth Mom cracking the 3 dozen eggs that go into the batter. Mom's turn at making Funnel Cake batter The end of the night. So tired. My mom's birthday was that Sunday and since it was after midnight everyone working that night sang her a Happy Birthday tune. :) I love this picture!
