Smiling like a kid in a Candy Store.....

So I left Thursday evening headed to Oklahoma to pick up my kids. I got to OKC about 4:30pm where I stopped off to visit my aunt & cousins. The ride itself was nice and the traffic wasn't that bad. 90% of the time I ride alone if my kids are not with me. Threw my Usher CD in the CD player and made a move. I ended up spending the night in the City and then got up the next morning about 10am and hit the highway headed to Tulsa.

It was nice to be there but it's just so dull. I stopped by my sister's house and played with my nieces for a while and then went over to my homegirl's house and spent the night. She rode out to my kid's house with me to take my daughter a swimsuit that she needed for the "fun day" she was having on the last day of school. My daughter just finished the 5th grade and will be going into middle school next year. I'm so proud of her as well as my daughter whose going to 2nd grade and my son who will be in the 10th grade.

So Friday morning I got up and headed out to her school because everything was starting at 9a she said. They had Chic-Fil-A for breakfast and then we all went into the gym where the kids got tattoos and ran around for a minute. I took my camera and got pics galore as well as videos. While attending this fun day I ran into a school mate of mines whose son's attended the same school. Me, her and her friend sat around chatting and taking pics of the kids.

Their fun day consisted of a water slide and a few other blow up fun things. They did tug-of-war which was fun to watch. I'm really glad I made it down to hang out with her. I sat and ate lunch with my youngest and then got them out of school early. We went over to their house and got some of their clothes and as soon as my son got home from school and got his things together we got out of there. We left about 4p and didn't get home til' about 10pm because the traffic on 35 was crazy. It's only about a 4 hour drive but that's not what we experienced on the way back.

It was a good thing though cause we were talking, laughing and listening to music. We all were so tired when we got back home. Now we're trying to get back into the swing of things. I'm so happy they're home and they're happy to be home.

Until I refresh my thoughts... talk lata'
