Weather men are not always right......

Well, last week it snowed on Thursday about two inches total where we live. As you could see from the photos, the girls were happy to play and make snowmen! Then on Saturday and Sunday, they were running around in shorts and tank tops! Well, this morning, we awoke to snow on the ground yet again. Granted, it was only about 1/4 inch, but it was snow. Go Figure!!...............


Girls are getting used to the changes and the unknowns but getting tired of leaving with coat, gloves and scarves and coming home with a very heavy backpack full of all of it! Campbell looks like a stuffed sausage most mornings!............


It is some excitment for our otherwise un-event-filled lives. Hopefully we are on the BRINK OF CHANGE THERE!!............

Last weekend, we attended a Jenks SE (elementary school they go to) fundraiser. It was FAMILY BINGO NIGHT! Loud but fun enough. No winners in our group...........

The girls have both started an afterschool program that lasts 6 weeks. Addison on Wednesday called MAD SCIENCE (which is when Campbell has her brownie meetings twice a month) and Campbell on Thursday called YOUNG REMBRANDTS (which is Addison's brownie day). Addison learned about air and space today and had a blast. Hope tomorrow is the same success for Campbell..............

Both girls are still enjoying brownies and their new friends. Thanks to all who bought a few cookies! No sports on the horizon though. We thought Softball for Addison, but that did not work, she was too old for the group who invited her..........

Kipper is a traveling fool. He has traveled every single week thus far. He left today for Austin and Dallas and will return Friday. Next week is Houston and the following is Phoenix. He is beginning to "really get it" and feel as though he is not so new anymore. That did not take long!!............

I guess I am the lone ranger in the "something to do" catagory. I have found a bible study that meets on Monday. I have also decided to join a group called the TULSA NEWCOMERS CLUB for women and thier spouses. Tomorrow is my first attempt. I am going to LOFT, Lunch on First Thursday! Clever. I plan to meet up with a women who I have been emailing with (who I am anxious to get to meet in person) and we will attend together. Meredith is her name and she has given me lots of insite to this group. She is also a non-working mom with kids my girls ages. I am hopeful!!! They have several activities each moth to try out as I feel like it! Next will be BUNKO!..........

Monday I will join a group of Junior League Sustainer for "Dinner Club" and go to a restuarant I have not been to. They meet monthly and try new places all over town. And then JL bookgroup meets the 19th of February and I will attend that as well...........

I have not started working at the school, will do that the 21st. I will get to go to Valentine Parties next week and help with their Teacher Appreciation events the following week, so I will finally get up to the school. It is just so different there. Not sure I am 100% convinced it is the best choice we made, but it has only been a month and the girls are happy and making 100's on most everything! So Proud!!..........

But I do have "SVEN" and SKY FITNESS (gym)who are both kicking my butt, my much smaller butt I might add! I am enjoying it all!! (Shhhh do not tell) Any of my upcoming visitors want to work out....bring your stuff and I will take you!!!..........

Kipper and I also have established DATE NIGHT. We have a darling baby-sitter who is a senoir at ORU and so cute. (Looks Swedish) Girls love her and she loves the girls (or so she says)!!!! This is a great thing since we have nothing but family time otherwise. We are getting to try new things!!!..........

We have a dinner planned this weekend with Kipper's co-workers and spouses and next weekend his Dad and Barbro come for a visit!......

Ok, so the weather man said tomorrow will be sunny and 48.....we will see. Today was supposed to be sunny and 48 but the sun just poked through about 20 minutes ago and I think it may be 39 now. BURR...BURR....BURR!..........
