Today was bittersweet. After letting the kids loose in the candy aisle of Walgreens to pick out tons of road trip treats, we delivered those treats and some homemade cards to our dear friends, the Stockwells. We were so sad to say goodbye and will miss them dearly. Mason was especially sad today to say goodbye to his good friend Matthew and his second mom Katrina. We are so excited for them to be in their new home and new city! We are hoping to make a visit in September. After a sad start to the day we decided to drown our sorrows at the pool. A great morning of swimming at the Y cheered every one! Many friends were there and we all had a great time. The O'Neill's and Lewis' joined us for lunch at Megoburger, our new favorite burger spot in Ponca. In our super official, scientific taste test they were voted the best cheeseburger in Ponca City!
For about a year and half the kids have been begging to go to The Conoco Museum. I finally took them this afternoon. After a trip to the bathroom Missa yelled, "This place is fantastic!!". That is what I call a success.
From there we went to 5th Street Park after a stop at the grocery store for fudgesicles and water. A couple of hours later it was evident that everyone was getting tired (the moms too!) so we called it a day. Matt has taken the boys to play basketball at the church and the Miss and I are gearing up to make sugar cookies for the cookout on Sunday.

A fun day of crafting and swimming with the O'Neills. Mason has a bit of a sunburn and the rest of us are happy and tired. A dinner with the work girls at the Rusty Barrel for me while Matt put all the kiddos to bed. Great day!

Stranniganza 2010 (aka Thanksgiving)
We drove 11 hours to Cheyenne, WY for a weekend with these guys:
There was a LOT of this:
And some of this:
And some serious cousin time for these six:
And a lot of snuggling and sleeping for this one:
And a quick trip to the ER for him (what trip would be complete without that!!):
We are so thankful for our wonderful family! We had a blast and can't wait to do it all (except the ER part) next year!

Shirtless Pumpkin Carving
Well, only the boys were shirtless. But we all did some carving.
I tried to avoid carving pumpkins this year. I wasn't really feeling it. When I told the boys, they looked as if someone had died. I quickly went to the store and bought two rough looking pumpkins from the slim selection at the store. We borrowed a few carving tools from a friend and got to work. Sadly, in my haste, I forgot to buy lights. So we improvised and used our Trick or Treating flashlights.
Good times. And, I posted on my blog. So there Cyd.
