Adventures of Oklahoma


As usual we have had lots of fun these last couple of months. I do not love living in Oklahoma. With the many visitors and abundance of fun activities to do here, I am surviving.  We had our very good friends the Saumwebers come and stay with us for a weekend. Not only was it a blast for Anthony and I  but the kids loved it to. My dad  also  for a quick visit. We didn't tell the kids he was coming. That was a great surprise. When the time came for him to leave poor Brendon was in tears. In between time of visitors we have ventured out a few times to down town Oklahoma and Brick Town. We have found a few places that we really enjoy.
Thursday I went on Brendon's first school field trip with him. I love watching him interact with his friends. He also had his first friend from school birthday party. Zachary a boy in Brendon's class turned 5. They had his party at a bowling ally. Brendon thought he had gone to birthday party heaven!
Arianna is the comic relief and trouble maker at house. Example: Anthony was playing and kind of teasing her. She pointed her finger at him and says  "You are buggin me! ALL THE DAY!!!" I could not stop laughing. Good thing she is so cute. She continues to love swim and dance class. 


Weekend with the Saumwebers
A full and happy car.

How do you keep two boys busy? Mario brothers on nintendo. If I am being honest Joe and Anthony played it a lot more than these two boys.

I am  from a big city, but had never seen a fair cover as much ground as the one in Oklahoma. It was a blast.

The Tulsa Aquarium 


Brendon was brave enough to touch a baby bull shark. He sat there for 5 minutes or more hoping to touch one.


The Bone Museum

Despite Brendon's face in this picture he was having fun.



 Lunch with Daddy!
Now that Anthony has an office close to where we live we can eat lunch with him. Okay maybe daddy never eats lunch, but the kids enjoy it.
