Last weekend we went to Oklahoma, and I think we crammed about a months worth of weekend events into one weekend. We left Friday for Tulsa so that Owen and I could see our favorite Dr Asher there. My mom met us there and took Ethan on to Stillwater so that Chris and I could get lunch and do some shopping. It was amazing how just having Owen with us seemed like a vacation!That night we left both boys with my parents and celebrated our 5 year anniversary at the Atherton Hotel in Stillwater. We had a fabulous dinner at the Rancher's Club there. Owen took a bottle that night and the next morning, so we got a whole 15 hours with just the two of us. It was amazing.
On Saturday, we picked up Owen and headed to Norman to see Chris' mom. Ethan stayed with my parents and had the time of his life. My dad took him for donuts for breakfast, to Lowe's, to the OSU basketball stadium, the football stadium, for tractor rides, and who knows what else! I think my dad slept really well after the weekend!
That night, Chris, Owen and I headed to my friend, Brandi's, wedding. It was so good to see Kristin, Kobie, and Rachelle there too. We were able to all go out after the wedding and do a little catching up. It made me really ready for our annual Labor Day trip together.
On Sunday we were back in Stillwater for Owen's baby shower thrown by some family friends. It was great to see everyone there, and Owen got some really cute things. Now he actually has some clothes that his big brother didn't wear first!
It was such a fun weekend, and everything went so smoothly. We loved every minute of it, but we were definitely ready to get home.

Congratulations on your anniversary and for taking a night away from the boys! James and I haven't done that yet, but I think we should do it very soon. Hope you all are doing well. I really like your post about diapers. I'm going to start putting Bum Genius 3.0 diapers on her very soon. Any tips? - Laura
After reading through friends blogs, I ended up seeing the Hoyle name on someone's blog and was curious to see if it was my former student, Chris. Sure enough! Please send Chris my best and congrats on your two beautiful boys. Samantha
