Going to the Fair!

Ever since Elle saw the Oklahoma "great state of a fair" commercial on TV she has been asking to go. Last Friday, I left after my last class and picked up the girls before nap at daycare. We loaded up and went to Glencoe to take 5 of Scott's students to the State Fair. Glencoe FFA was scheduled to work Agtropolis from 5-10 pm on Friday night. I thought it was a perfect opportunity to take the girls to the Fair and try and use a 20% off coupon at Kohl's.



Elle made it very clear to me that the most important thing at the fair was the Ferris Wheel. So once we got there, we did the Agtorpolis exhibit. The kids can go around and look at animals, kind of like a petting zoo, and be a farmer for a day. They had to put on an apron, plant seeds, pick apples and pumpkins. Get eggs from the chickens (they were fake) and dig up potatoes. They then traded the goods for money that they could spend at a general store. The girls really enjoyed it.

After Agtropolis, we made our way to the overpriced rides. We did 4 spins on the Ferris Wheel and made our way to Kiddie Land. The girls had a great time!

We hit Kohl's at about 8 pm right when the fair was getting packed!
