state fair

Elle and I visited the OK State Fair for the first time. We've been to the Tulsa State Fair, but hadn't experienced the one here. It's not a favorite place for Chris to go, and I hate big crowds so we went on Monday morning and tried to get there as soon as the buildings opened. It was a great time to go because we got a great parking space and there weren't any crowds to mess with. We were greatly disappointed in the lack of animals though. It was pretty empty in the barns. We found a few in one barn, the birthing center, and the Agtropolis. Elle's favorite was the baby chicks, but that could have been the fun walkway that made lots of noise. The sea lion show was cute and the wild west show at the centennial frontier area was neat, but Elle got bored with the rope tricks and started playing with the rocks. She did let me walk through the creative arts building, which is one of my favorite parts. We also got to watch some of the marching bands who were there for a contest, while we ate our corn dogs.

This is as close as she would get.


Checkin' out the CASE. Do you think Uncle Ken would like this one?



These were our fair books:


Dooby Dooby Moo is cute, if you like this series, but Elle doesn't get a lot of the jokes. County Fair is part of the My First Little House Books, which I love because I can start introducing one of my favorite series, but the stories are short enough she doesn't get bored.
