Clint & I had a really great trip to Oxford for the family reunion on his mom's side of the family. MamaKin is 102 and was able to be there. She recognized who we were. It took her a little while because of all the other faces she saw that day. We got to visit with Clint's Aunt Jan and Uncle Lynn and his cousin David2 and Stacy. Uncle David and Aunt Carolyn worked really hard on making the reunion great. We had fresh garden green beans, creamed corn & tomatoes. Aunt Carolyn baked 4 different kinds of cookies that were awesome. I ate WAY to much but it was worth the pound I gained. David2 and Stacy are expecting their first baby in December. They had a DVD of an ultrasound. It was soooo cool. They are having a boy. Clint, Uncle Lynn and David2 went to Tunica on Saturday after the reunion. I went shopping and still spent less than Clint did :) Then, Sunday morning we went to church with MamaKin. We were back in Tulsa by 7:00. Beth called me and said Nadia was wailing so much she brought her inside. (Nadia and CoCo don't really get along that well) I kenneled Lance at the vet's office so I picked him up Monday. He was VERY glad to see me. They said he did really well being boarded. I think it was harder on me to leave him than it was for him to stay there. The tech said he was very sweet. I guess he didn't try to eat her face off......
Ethan is at the lake with friends. I've talked to him several times and he's having a great time.
Wyatt is enjoying his summer until he leaves for boot camp:)
Mom and Daddy left Friday morning for Harlingen. A friend of theirs called and said their RV had damage from Hurricane Dolly (? I guess I should have watched the news this summer) so Jan drove them down and helped them get everything cleaned up. They had some water damage from a vent pulling loose on the roof of the 5th wheel. They got it replaced and everything dried out. Jan crawled on the top of the RV to replace the part and caulk around the new vent. I hope Mom had her video camera:) It is as hot there as here so they worked in the mornings and I think shopped in the afternoons. There is an outlet mall not to far from the RV. They have a Coach store there so I'm waiting to see how many purses Jan comes home with. It might have been cheaper for Paul to have just bought Mom & Daddy a new RV than let Jan loose in a Coach store:)
I'm headed to my new school to work on my classroom. Leann is moving to 2nd grade so I have a huge load of resources from her kindergarten stuff loaded in the back of the LandRover. I'm going back later in the week to pick up the rest. Phil and Clint are such great teacher husbands. They just smile and load vehicles and help us move all of it. We went to Stillwater last night and picked up 'stuff' and then had dinner with Leann, Phil, Victoria and Amanda (Leann's friend) at a new place in Stillwater called Crepe Murtle's. It was really good. We all had a crepe for dessert with cake batter ice cream. It really tastes like cake batter. I could get addicted to it.
More later..........
