Tom and I took a trip to the Tulsa State Fair a week or so ago. We hadn’t been to the fair since before we got married. The last time I was there we bought an ornament with our wedding date (to be) and our names. I still have that ornament and I would include a picture but it’s in storage in Washington State.

I had lunch at Cutie Pies. We had seen it on the local news that morning and wanted to try it. They have an awesome Watermelon Lemonade as well as some great desserts. I was there for the savory meal and enjoyed a chicken bowl. Tom had chicken/fries from the place next to it. We saw some interesting signs for food but didn’t experience any of those. Thanks goodness!

I wanted to spend some time with the baby animals. We’d seen that some new piglets were born and also some baby goats. It took a while to find them but we did. I had a great time petting and feeding the goats. Although when I left one of the older goats tried to eat my shirt. We didn’t get to pet the new piglets but they were cute. One pig had 16 piglets the day before!

We had a good time at the fair, even without riding any rides. Tom and I disagree on the rides to ride anyway. We picked up a funnel cake for my mother-in-law on the way out. Here’s our conversation on the way to her house. I am holding the funnel cake.

Tom: Are you sure you have it?

Me: Yeah I’m sure.

Tom: Have you seen me drive?

Me: Yes. I’m holding on for dear life.

Tom turns to go on the expressway.

Me: THE ARROW IS GONE, YOU CUT IN FRONT OF THOSE PEOPLE.

Tom: I was sure if I took that turn too fast the funnel cake would fly off the plate.

Me: I HAVE THE FUNNEL CAKE!!!

The funnel cake made it safely to Linda’s and was enjoyed.

We’re still experiencing summer here in Oklahoma. We’ve had some 93 degree days and 90’s are still expected this weekend. I’m over it. I was hoping for some regular Autumn weather, but in Oklahoma not much is regular. As an Okie, I can complain. Hope your days are cooler.
