Inaugural Family Fun by Shelly Perkins Photography

I wanted to share a personal photo of my girls. We were delighted to attend a family event hosted by Oklahoma's newly elected Governor Mary Fallin at the Oklahoma Science Museum. They had a great time not only seeing Governor Fallin but also painting tiles for a mosaic for the Capitol building, having their faces painted, meeting Ronald McDonald, the Oklahoma City Thunder Basketball Cheerleaders, and all sorts of fun.

Mary Fallin's team did a great job of putting together this event for the citizens of our great state. We enjoyed performances by upcoming Greyson Chance (who will be performing with Miranda Cosgrove) and Kyle Dillingham (a violinst who is an Enid native). Oklahoma has some amazingly talented musicians and artists.
