Oklahoma!

The girls and I got to spend a week in Tulsa. It was so fun to see Tom, Emily, Tyler, and their place. I felt like the girls and Tyler really got to know each other. They were so cute about helping him.

Since it was 107 when we first got there, the slip-n-slide was a big hit. We also liked visiting our first Splash Pad.

Carly (when we stepped outside after church): It's so hot, it feels like my eyeballs are going to pop outta my head!

We had fun at the neighborhood pool, where Robyn went off the diving board for the first time, and seeing Em's parents.

We also had fun doing our morning pilates.

The (old) cell phones were also a big hit! Em said if she would've known how well loved they'd be, she would've saved them for Christmas.

The kids did well on our drive to Chicago, especially for the first 7 hrs. Thanks, Stephanie, for the stickers, etc.

Thanks for being so brave to make the trek with us! Thanks for such a nice visit.
