This summer, I am teaching summer tutoring at ADES for 1st and 2nd graders. Its only for 4 weeks, but we get one week off for July 4th. So, what do we do? We load up the van and head to Oklahoma. We always look forward to stopping in Cabot to be with Alan, Deanna, Emma and Izzy.
Aunt "Nana" always makes sure to celebrate every one's birthday! So, Chloe was surprised when she got another birthday song and cake!
How great is this picture?
It is only missing Harry and Virginia to have a tower of Carpenter grand kids!
Though we were sad to leave, we packed up to head to Oklahoma to see the Erwins! I was so lucky that I got to see Sarah while I was there. We got pedicures, ate taco salads at Monterrey's and then went shopping. I wished the night never had to end! Since I had just posted our "twin" picture when we were 13, I thought we needed to post one at 37!!!!
Chris and I also had a little fun playing dress up. I found my mom's two piece from when she was 30 and had to try it on! And Chris found just the shirt to start his teaching career!
Devin and Chris got some "guy time" when they went to see SpiderMan!
Devin is in the Willy Wonka performance and Grammie and Paw Paw got "Wonka-ed"!
Koda loved the purple hats in the yard!
We even got to watch the country club's fireworks from the backyard!
In Bartlesville, we saw Chloe's friend Sterling's name everywhere! From restaurants to assited living, Chloe was reminded about her friend Sterling .
When we went to see Devin's perforamce rehearsal, we were at the mid high school.
I THINK I found my 10th grade locker! But, just like in my dream, I forgot the combination.
Koda also got "artsy" with a nose ring at Garfields!
But, one of the best things about the visit to Bartlesville was the fun we had at Kiddie Park! It was Koda's first year to really ride the rides and he loved every second of it.
But, the time came to go back home. Its always sad to say goodbye!
Not just in Oklahoma, but also in Arkansas. . . . . .
