YIPES!!
It's been almost two weeks since I posted last!
So, because I'm lamo-bahjamo and didn't get this out sooner, I'm gonna go ahead and post about my State Fair Fun!
Well, because of my best friend's wedding I was afraid that I wasn't going to be able to go to the Great State Fair of Oklahoma this year. HOWEVER my boyfriend is awesome and as we were driving home we had this convo...
B: "What do you want for lunch? IHOP?"
Me: "I donno...mmmm I do know! I want and Indian Taco!"
B: "Do you really? Should we go to the Fair?"
Me: "No... we don't have to go to the Fair. We can go to IHOP I can have an Indian Taco another time."
B: "We can go to the fair if you want."
Me: "OKAY! LET'S GO TO THE FAIR!"
And to the Fair we did go!!
Once inside the grounds we were on a mission! 1. Corn dog. 2. Dan's Indian Tacos!!
We stopped and got Brian a corn dog and then off to Dan's!

"I want one with everything on it! And a jalapeno!" And that, my friends, is what I got!
I couldn't even wait to take a picture before diving in! |
I was fine going to the Auto Show (I saw a Honda Element & I want one!! Silver, please) and other buildings, but my FAVORITE is the Made in Oklahoma Building. It's my favorite place to go and see all sorts of vendors from around OK and learn what's new. And to be totally honest, I love the OK made wine.
After walking around we decided it was time for some rides. The Ferris Wheel was a must... except we chose the janky one that had me a little frightened. But it was a lovely ride...

Not only is it a great view of the Fair, but you can see the City in the background! |
After riding the Ferris Wheel we decided on something a little more scary...
It wasn't the best idea...
Maybe if we hadn't spent the whole night before partying it up for free at the Skirvin it wouldn't have been so bad.
Just so you're warned: The Space Roller is dangerous, but fun. That is, if you like the being flipped upside down, backwards and plunging head first into a crowd.
Never have I ever wanted to throw up at the Fair-until after riding this ride.
Space Roller- beware! |

I can't wait for next year when maybe we can re-live our Fair time of 2 years ago and my best friend and her now husband can join us and he and I can sing "Big Green Tractor" at the top of our lungs... Maybe...
