I figure I can make a short story long and draw out the details of our trip to Tulsa. It'll give you a few posts worth of pictures and stories anyway!

Our first stop was lunch at Dave & Busters. It was actually quite dead in there for lunch on a Saturday. We had the full attention of our waitress, who was dressed in pirates attire to celebrate Halloween.

Following our meal, we headed straight for the games. It was all we could do to keep the kids focused on their food! Jon and Dominic had fun playing all the shoot-em-up games. Dominic needs to work a bit on his gun-holding technique!

Amara was more focued on winning tickets. They won right around 600 tickets, and each were able to select a stuffed animal. Amara chose a purple kitty, Dominic a blue dolphin. Think they're satisfied with their choices?

The highlight of this trip was getting to meet my friend Reese! I actually "met" her a couple months ago through the Bloom book club. She was also in Tulsa for the weekend, so we met for lunch. She's a wonderful person on line, and even better in real life!

When we were ready to leave, Jon put the kids on the roof of the van. No idea why -- but they that that was fun!


This is just the start of our weekend. Notice the blue sky. It was that gorgeous the entire time. Love southern living!
