Friends

We (Jen Norman, Jacob and I) went to OKLAHOMA this weekend to visit our friends Any and Jenny Campbell. Let me tell you, it was a blast!
A quick synopsis of the weekend was Riding Trikes into OKC, 4-wheeling, mountain-boarding, and ziplining at Camp WOW, late night POKER, and to top it off, spending the day at the lake- wakeboarding, and wake surfing.

It was so much fun, I dont know why we havent been sooner. Jenny and Andy have 2 precious kiddos, Kai and Kennedy. Andy is a fireman and has a trike shop named: Trinity Trikes. Jenny has a new business named "Scraphappy" and she makes cute headbands and baby blankets, as well as other neat stuff.

I was reminded of those lasting friendships that you will always have regardless of how far apart you are. We are lucky to have great friends who LOVE to have a great time!

Pray for Jenny, she was feeling sick this weekend. What an awesome mommy she is. I admire her a lot, especially b/c her husband is a big KID himself.

Our House, is a very, very, very fine house.

That's right we are buying a house!!

I have to admit I am not as freaked out about this house as I was about buying the last one. Maybe because I know the process this time, and I see it everyday at work.

Anyways...we are going to close on June 26th, and have a whole LOT of work to do once we get in.

New Carpet
New Countertops in kitchen and bathrooms.
New fans and other light fixtures
Painting
Yard work
New knobs and pulls
Retexture the ceiling
Make the fireplace be "not ugly"

......
Lots of stuff

Luckily Jacob has the summer off and he can work on it all day, everyday.

But, hopefully all the hard work will be worth the effort. And very soon, we will call the house, "Our Home".

I will post pictures of the finished product.
