Happy 100th Birthday Oklahoma!!!!!!

Happy Birthday Oklahoma!!! We had fun celebrating you!

I say the celebration started Friday morning. Cayson & I watched the reenactment on TV that took place in Guthrie. I thought I'd take a couple of pictures of him while he was eating/watching the event. I took these when they fired the shots saying Oklahoma was a state. He was really cheesing for the camera.

Rebecca & I had such a great time at the Centennial Spectacular concert. It wasn't quite what we expected, but it was am amazing experience. We got to see so many huge Oklahomans (not huge as in fat, but huge as in amazing). The most touching part was when a 101 year old Oklahoman sang the original state song. He did such a great job - I don't think there was a dry eye in the whole entire Ford Center. My only complaint was that Garth didn't sing! What in the world? He's one of the biggest stars from Oklahoma!

Here I am with our "props" for the concert
We were supposed to hold up these big sheets of papers during a certain song and it was supposed to spell something around the whole stadium. The only flaw was that nobody did it!!! Probably about 100 people did it out of the thousands there.
Today Cayson, Mom, & I went to the Weatherford celebration. We watched the entertainment and the fireworks. Cayson was amazed by the fireworks at first and then he screamed bloody murder. I think they were a little too loud for his poor ears.

Here's Mom & Cayson moving to the music

Well, that sums up our celebrations this weekend! Hope everyone had a fun filled weekend!
