Fun in Oklahoma!

I have been dreading doing this post because I knew how many pictures I would have to add! We had an awesome trip to Oklahoma the begining of July. I took the boys by myself and other than the plane & airport "incidents", I handled it all pretty well I think! Colt & I stayed for a week and then Troy stayed for 5 days by himself. My parents brought him home and are staying for a week for their annual Utah summer visit. Here is how we spent our vacation!

Being silly & showing off for Papa & Cookie!


Visiting with Grandma Pat (my dad's mom who recently relocated to OKC to be closer to my dad) She is so cute with the boys!

Having an early birthday celebration for Troy's upcoming birthday. He wanted a Teenage Mutant Ninga Turtle cake and it was pretty crazy! I think the person who made it must have been high on drugs! But Troy loved it!

Yeah, can you believe that frosting? It stained their faces! And just imagine what it looked like 2 days later coming out the other end! UGH!

My parents house is gorgeous but totally not child friendly! What can you expect though! We visit once a year :) Colt instantly found the candy drawer which is right at his level.


This piece, he took a bite out with the wrapper still on.

We usually shop a little every day when I visit. The kids need to get out everyday and my mom and I need our shopping fix. We found lots of bargins this time which made me very happy! I will miss our daily stops at Sonic for a "cold drink" as Troy would say.

***Note: This is the last picture that we have of Underdog (Troy's pride & joy little bean bag dog) We lost him at the OKC Zoo, he tells people he went to live with the Tigers. I think I was more heartbroken that we lost him than Troy was. I have spent DAYS of my life searching for that dumb dog over the last 18 months. He has been replaced though with a new little pound puppy also named Underdog, but it's just not the same :(

We loved playing on my parents "Wiggle Cars". You wiggle the handles and the move. And they go really fast down my parents drive way! It scared me to death the first time but Troy didn't even bat an eye. They were soooo fun! My mom said I can't get them though....if I did, it wouldn't be special when we visit!

My parents garden is in full bloom! Troy loved helping Cookie pick things out of it, and eat them right outside. He loves any kind of veggies. Last year he was eating whole onions out of Grandma Nae's garden! Yuck!

Just being cute :)

Troy's new thing: washing Colt's hair

Colt's new puppy towel, Troy has a tiger one at our house

Cookie & Troy at the neighborhood parade. He got way better candy there than he does at our parades! And the cars in the parade were WAY nicer than Sanpete's!

Troy & Cookie on the Log Ride. They went to an amusment park after Colt and I went home to do the "big kid" stuff. They also saw Wall-E, played pool and practicing their golf swings in the backyard.
