OH no....wrong turn
BUT we did like the casino on the wrong road :)
and the SonicNap 1Nap 2Nap 3Entertainment after nap timeapparently, there is always a way. with an atlas and an iPhone we made it to the city. we got there about midnight, with Grandpa and Grandma waiting patiently for us (that is waaaaay past their bed time, btw) but the weekend began the next morning with Jaxson up at 7am finding surprises in the toy closet just for him. PS. no one really knows the torture of toys that make noise until you are in a house with it for 48hours. Grandma will rethink her toy purchases from now on :) OK OK, here is our OKC 4th of July. ENJOY.....

4th of July

(image brought to you by weheartit.com)

Long weekends are always welcomed and the 4th of July is almost here. I always get gitty about this holiday. When I was little, my home town always had their annual town summer celebration over the fourth of July weekend. Softball touraments, parades, sand volleyball, all day long talant shows, picnics and of course fireworks. I remember loading up my dad's pick-up truck with tons of blankets and heading to the ball field where all my friends were waiting to pile in the back of the truck. We'd lie on our backs and try to guess the colors of the next firework to explode. It's been over 10 years since I have been in my home town for this holiday and I am still not returning this year, even though it is my 10 year class reunion. (can't believe it's 10 years, eek) Instead. Road Trip to another American state, Oklahoma. My grandpa and grandma will have the pleasure of creating these childhood memories with little mister this year and I can't hardly wait. Sitting at the office today is torture.

So I hope everyone has a safe holiday and lots of memories/stories to tell when we return.

xo.

BW Happenings

1 hour Off coupons and a new armrest.

This is one day in the life of my mister. I think I need to visit his work and encourage them to provide better seating. However, this photo made me laugh for 2 reasons. 1. 1 hour off coupons?? hahahahaha. that's just funny, like Yippee, winning the lottery for sure!!! But seriously, I wish my work would do this. 2. the arm rest isn't even on the chair? oh man! FACILITIES need to re-evaluate the morale of their employees ASAP. I U!

We'll be getting in the car tomorrow in the afternoon sometime to make our first road trip out of state together. Mister, little mister and I. Can't wait to show pictures and share stories. Real posts about that to come. Look for airplanes, golden seats, and lots & lots of root beer.

Thursday song obsession: (funny story behind this: I needed to pick up the mister from work yesterday. He told me "I'll start walking at 5 and you can just pick me up street side when we meet. SO I left work at 5 driving along to this song and as the beat picked up to the song, I saw the shadow of him coming down the hill walking to the beat, it was awesome! Made me giggle.)
