Quick Road Trip...

We took a quick road trip last Saturday to Tulsa to see out grandson. The kids had gone to Tulsa to visit my brother and his family and to see a concert put on by "The Kings of Leon" Friday night. We went up to spend the day and have a belated celebration of my birthday. As usual the dinner was wonderful and the cake yummy. My brother and his family gave me a beautiful cup with bumble bees decorating it, you have to know I love bumble bees and collect them. The kids gave me a beautiful picture frame filled with pictures of Noah. The little fellow is growing so fast. He us pulling up and trying to get his balance to walk. He's such a good baby and a delight to be with.


While on the trip up, a milk tanker passed us and on the back of it was an American Flag with the words "Let's Roll", I immediately teared up and thought of all those souls lost on 9-11 and Todd Beamer who said those famous words and with the help of others kept the terrorist from flying into Washington D.C. and killing even more people. God Bless them all.


We took Noah to Woodward Park during "magic hour" where the Azalea's are in bloom and took his Easter pictures. He was so much fun to watch. I had the job of holding the flash to the camera and "Come on G-ma try to get him to smile." That was the easy part. The hard part was climbing over the rock that were very uneven at times. With new knees it was not easy, but for the most part I managed.


Afterwards we went to our favorite place to eat, Goldie's. It was as good as ever. We now have to go to Tulsa to enjoy their burgers since the franchise store in Norman has closed. Boo Hoo!

We started back home at about 9:45 p.m., got gas and hit the front door of our house at 12:30 a.m. after a stop at Wally World to get some cream for the coffee the next morning. The big dogs were happy to see us as they had been outside all day long. We took the little squirt with us as the neighbors would have killed us as he is a non-stop barker if he sees anything move. He did real well with all the other animals that were there at the house, 4 dogs and a cat.

So all in all it was a great day filled with great memories.

  4. The paragraphs just appeared on this post. As Donna aka Froggi said it may be just a site problem as one other person she was following had the same problem. Who knows...
