WHAT WE DID: AUGUST 25th

Class is back in session and it's officially "Back to School" week here at We Denton Do It. While that means a few of us have much worse schedules for the next nine months of the year, that also means lots of people are back in Denton! To celebrate, we've got a bunch of posts planned for ya this week. To start us off, here's this week's What We Did, our weekly look back at the past seven days of life in Denton. If you'd like to have a picture included, tag your best Denton shots with #WDDI on Instagram and we'll try to include it next week. 

Click on the images to be linked back to the account of the photographer, and hover over the gallery images to see the photographer in the bottom left corner. Have a great week and don't waste too much money on textbooks!

The North Texas State Fair

The North Texas State Fair ended it's yearly run on Saturday evening, and with it left a whole heap of fun. It's always a bit hot out when the fair goes on, but the excitement of livestock, funnel cake, and carnies always draws us back. Flip through the images above to get an idea of what this year's fair was like. 

How the hell do you people keep getting up so high? We're jealous.
