Cold in Tulsa

The kids are feeling much better.  B and N both turned the corner in the middle of the week.  We are glad to have our happy kids back!  

We were even feeling good enough to enjoy a couple of fun cookies from the bakery... surprise, surprise!    

       

Oklahoma was in the middle of another ice storm this week.  

It's funny for us to witness the chaos as all the surrounding schools closed for the week over a little ice and snow. 

     

B said, "Is it Christmas now?"  E didn't have to go into TU for two days!  We spent our days inside, trying to occupy the kids and ourselves.  We made a fort under the dining room table & played many games of tag.  

We're joining the YMCA this weekend.  This will be so nice for us to be able to get out of the house and get moving more.  The kids will have fun, E plans to get back into the weights, and I look forward doing more pilates.    

Here we are in Oklahoma...

Friends and family are always interested in the little things in life and this may make it easier to learn more about our family at your leisure.  Grandparents on both sides are still blessed with dial-up internet and this is much easier than Facebook!  

Oklahoma is where we hang our hat and the weather yesterday was beautiful -  70's and it couldn't be better.  

We had a great and well needed visit from my friends over the weekend.  We had a great time with them.  We had a girls day of shopping.  We spent some time at Utica Square and ended the day on the patio at Starbucks.  We had a personal introduction to Wii and I think E could be addicted.  Guitar Hero and a few beers took the guys late into the last evening, we shared a bottle of wine and downloaded our photos to our Facebook accounts - all before they all had to make the drive back to Texas.  I really missed my best friend and am so grateful for the time we had together.  We will do it again soon.  

B and N have both been under the weather.  Over the weekend N had croup.  Yuck!  The coughing then began for B and continues today.  N has since been to the doctor twice.  Yesterday he tested positive for RSV.  Poor guy!  So, now we're home trying breathing treatments and getting the kids on the road to recovery.
