Beach Bums :)

We took our first "real" family vacation this summer to Destin, FL. It was AHHHmazing! The 15 hour drive wasn't bad at all and our condo was the perfect home away from home. We couldn't have asked for a better trip. We spent our our days being certified beach bums and just hanging out- playing in the sand, soaking up the sun, splashing in the waves and of course, eating way too much!!! Every day Wyatt would ask to "Go to the water?" and that's just what we did! We were at the beach by 9:30 every day and came back to the condo to swim in our resort-style pool in the late afternoons. Wyatt LOVES to swim! We made some great family memories and can't wait to come back sunny Florida!

Our Dolphin Cruise- Wyatt got to be the captain of the boat!

Daddy Caught a fishy!

Not so excited to stop running just to take a
boring pic with Mom :(

Goodbye Destin, we hope to be seein' ya again next summer!

Choo Choo Wyatt is TWO!

We celebrated Wyatt's 2nd Birthday with Choo Choo Train party at The Orr Family Farm. It was a great day! I still can't believe my baby is a 2 year old! He is talking so much and constantly on the go- literally running most of the time. He is such a sweety when he wants to be, but definitely has a stubborn side! He can throw fits with the best of them.... I love how funny he is too! You just never know what he is going to come up with.

I love you WyWy and hope you loved your Choo Choo party!

Ten Years!?

And no, I'm not talking about how long it's been since my last blog ;)

Comanche always has it's All Alumni banquet on Easter weekend and the 10 year class is the host. This year, that just happened to be my class- the Class of 2001! I seriously cannot believe it has already been 10 years since I graduated high school. Time flies.... I missed out on my class cookout on Friday night, but was able to make it to the banquet on Saturday. We didn't have a huge turnout, but it was nice to see those that were able to come.

Next year we'll get to do this all over again for Aaron's 10 year reunion!

Lil Rock Star

Wyatt's newest obsession- GUITARS!

He loves them and until this week, we completely forgot about our old Guitar Hero guitars. We drug them out of retirement from the back closet and Wyatt has been rockin' out ever since!

Livin' On Tulsa Time

We got home this afternoon from a fun filled, mini getaway to Tulsa. Our first stop was Sesame Street Live at the BOK Center downtown. It was great! I got our tickets awhile ago during the pre-sale so we were able to get on the 2nd row. Wyatt loved the show and was so excited to see Elmo and Big Bird. The characters would take turns coming into the audience and walking around, so Wyatt got to give Elmo a high five and shake hands with Ernie :) When Elmo would leave the stage Wyatt would say "Elmo, are you??" (his version of where are you)

After the big show, we headed to our hotel. We chose it because it had Leapin Louie's Lagoon in it. It is a small little, indoor pool play area for kids. Wyatt loves the water, so we knew he would have a good time. Earlier in the day he kept saying, "Tulsa swim?". He couldn't wait until we got to the pool! And just like we predicted- he LOVED it! (Seriously, if your ever staying in Tulsa with kiddos, the Radisson is the place to stay!) We even enjoyed a second trip to the pool this morning after a yummy breakfast at the hotel restaurant.

Show Time!

Wyatt's favorites - Elmo and Big Bird!

He was trying to take pictures with his Mickey phone :)

Just hanging out at the hotel

His favorite part - the froggy slide!

Good Morning!

Nothing beats a lazy Saturday morning hanging out in your jammies and.... froggy boots???

As soon as he had finished his breakfast he insisted that I put them on him and he's still wearing them :)

We're excited to have a low key weekend at home. The first in awhile! Aaron's at work this morning and I'm attempting to get some things cleaned around here (we'll see how that goes!) Then, we're off for a much needed haircut for Wyatt Man this afternoon and maybe a little shopping and dinner ;)

Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow!

Only in Oklahoma can you you spend one day walking around the zoo in 70 degree weather and then the next few days stuck inside while there is a blizzard with single digit temperatures and below zero wind chills! Friday and Saturday, the weather was PERFECT! We played outside Friday after work then grilled steaks and Saturday we did some shopping, went to the zoo and grilled burgers-- it was fantastic! Then, the bottom fell out... Sunday and Monday were cold and Monday night, the blizzard started! It was so crazy to see the blowing snow. We ended up with about a foot of snow and up to 5 ft drifts in some places! And it is COLD, some record setting cold temps for the state of OK!

While I am super sad that we lost our 3 Fridays off in April and will now probably have to add some days at the end of the school, I have to admit that I have thoroughly enjoyed the past two days at home with my guys. I was a little sad that Aaron had to leave us today. There is just something nice about being at home, no reason to go anywhere or feel rushed to do anything. We got to cuddle in the mornings, eat all three meals a day together (and we've eaten PLENTY!), play to our hearts content, watch a lot of Mickey, play in the snow, hang out with our neighbors and just have a great time! I wouldn't trade the past two days for anything :)

Watching Daddy shovel off the sidewalk

So bundled up that he can hardly bend over :)

He loved to throw the snow up!
