Tulsa or bust!

At 2:00 p.m. today I scurried out of town with my two besties, Jake and Aidan.  We are headed to Tulsa for these cuties to compete in a soccer tourney and I couldn’t be happier! I left behind Morgan in Branson performing in an orchestra concert, Drew competing in a soccer and baseball tourney (yikes!), and Reece in a soccer game.  This time I think I got the better end of the deal!!  Don’t get me wrong, I do hate missing all that is going on in KC but spending some quality time with Jakers is really awesome!

Jake had their seats already reclined with the foot rests up and snacks between them…this is the life I’m telling you!!  Love you boys!

We have enough gluten, carbs, and sugary snacks packed to send us straight to the endocrinologist on Monday or at least the diet aisle at the store!  I’m thrilled to be a part of this journey with these boys and embracing every ‘smelly boy’ minute.  We made it straight through to Tulsa by 5:30p.m., unloaded enough bags for a week (I’m really not sure why Jake and I are the only ones that have a TON of stuff),  went to a Mexican dinner with soccer friends, and spent some time in the pool.  Love these families and the memories created here (Tim, I’m your girl, if you ever need margaritas smuggled out of  a restaurant in my backpack!)

Only in Oklahoma do you run across a truck with dual giant Scooby Doo stickers!!

Remember when Drew was obsessed with Scooby Doo??  Here’s a flashback photo of him at his Scooby Doo 3rd birthday party which was SUPER fun by the way!!

How did I get from driving to Tulsa to Scooby Doo…I love spinning off into any subject. Thank you random Oklahoma truck for reminding me of Drew’s 3rd birthday!

In the meantime, Brian has been holding down the fort at home and apparently spending some quality time at Freddy’s!!  We will keep that a secret from Jake since that’s his all-time fave!
