July Post!

I know it has been WAY to long since my last post but there has been a LOT going on....so I am going to post from July 4th to this past weekend!


Here is Matthew LOVING his new ($5.00) pool. Such a sweet smile he had a "blast splashin around."


Here we are celebratin Independence day in our RED, WHITE, AND BLUE. I Love dressing up for the fourth, and I even got Nathan to play along (isn't he cute).

We also invited our good friends the Choates to have a traditional 4th of July barbeque. Thanks Calista, Jason and Kaylena for making the day sooo fun (even with the crazy storm that came out of nowhere).


Matthew and Kaylena posing for us, they kind of had a hard time cooperating but they were really cute.

After the storm passed, we risked walking to Regional Park to catch the fireworks show....it was awesome and Matthew actually loved it....this was the best picture I could get.

The weekend after the fourth, Nathan had free tickets to three Redhawk baseball games. It was also Matthews first baseball game (and mine I think). It was HOT!!!!!!!!! But really fun at the same time.

Matthew and I posing with the Redhawk mascot. (Thank goodness Matthew didn't get scared).


While at the Friday night baseball game, we received free tickets to go see the National Wakeboarding Competition. It was sooo HOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I only lasted about twenty minutes and begged Nathan for us to leave.....



....and of course as we are leaving the competitors finally started to do some wicked awesome tricks, unfortunately this is the best picture I could get... the boat. Later that afternoon Nathan and his dad went to the noon baseball game, then we had dinner, and Nathan and I went to the last game that night (just the two of us). It was exhausting but a lot of fun.



The weekend following the baseball games (which was this past Friday, Saturday and Sunday), we had a little family reunion and the first thing we did was go to the Oklahoma City Zoo on Friday (the admission was FREE, how sweet is that?). I couldn't help but take this picture of the deer (he is squating and taking a leak hahahahaha, well I thought it was funny)...............the bison ....
....the bear.....



..... last but not least, Emmy trying to get into the fish tank, she is so cute. They had some crazy looking fish in that tank.


That is all the pictures I had but a lot more happened last weekend (being pregnant I kept forgetting to take pictures). After the zoo, we went to Teds Escondido in Edmond (it was delicious as usual). The day after the zoo we went to WhiteWater Bay and had a wonderfu time getting wet....and sunburned (it did not matter how much sunscreen we slathered on, most of us got burned somehow). After WhiteWater, we went to Pizza Shuttle in Norman and had some awesome pizza. We also celebrated my 25th birthday, Nathans family TOTALLY suprised me which is hard to do I can usually catch on when something sneaky is going on. I think this is the first time I have ever been genuinly and completely suprised. We had cake and a lot of fun. Sunday we relaxed, had a good dinner/lunch, and said our goodbyes. So far it has been a FANTASTIC month of July!
