STATE FAIR

Not only is State Fair a great movie but it's a great time!  Saturday one of my favorite fall activities took place.  The Tulsa State Fair was in town!  We know it's going to be the same stuff every year but we always go.  It's just fun to walk around and maybe bump into some people you know.  I for sure got my corn dog this year and it was just as yummy as I remember it.  And I got some lemonade to go with it of course.  And guess what?  That was all I ate.  Surrounded by major diet wreckers and I stood strong and only ate what I went for.  

As a kid I don't ever remember playing the fair games on the Midway.  I don't think we even got an option of playing them.  I didn't play any at all this year but our friend that was with us LOVES him some fair games to we strolled the Midway, stopping at each game and checking it out.  Some people from our group played some and I just had the best time watching.  This was probably one of my best experiences I've ever had at the fair.  Zach Rowell and my cousin Kaycee got the bright idea that we should find the old time picture booth and all get in there together - there were seven of us.  When we finally found it some of us were holding back like they didn't want to participate but in the end they gave in and it's pretty much the best picture every taken.  I could not stop laughing when all seven of us plus the three workers were all getting dressed in the world's tiniest trailer. It was so funny and a moment I will soon not forget.

It turned out to be a really great night with great weather (I wished it was just a little bit chillier) and great people.  Two of the guys with us were visiting from out of town so it was nice to spend this time with them.  Without further ado, here is the Tulsa State Fair 2011.

The school bus ride is one of my favorite parts of going to the fair.

What creeps me out about this picture is not only the fact that I thought this thing was going to peck me but also the fact I know that I'm probably in that guys picture in the background.

On a side note - I won cleanest desk at work this past week for Customer Service Week.  I was really hoping to get Funniest Co-Worker.  Better luck next year.....
