Geocaching

Have you heard of the new trend of geocaching? Not really sure how new it actually is but it's new to us for sure. Last weekend our nephew turned 8 years old and he wanted to go geocaching. It seemed like it could be fun and Monkey wanted to go along. We took the 30 minute trip the boating district of OKC and started our journey there.
Lucky for us the flooding that was caused from the storms earlier that week had gone down. Just look at all the debris and the boat that was washed up onto a flower bed. There were boats all over that were on grass or broken from the rushing flood waters!
But that debris didn't keep us from moving forward and keep looking. Our first attempt didn't end well. We think it might have gotten washed away with flood water because there was nothing around so we moved on and headed towards Brick Town.

We enjoyed hanging out with the horses from the Oklahoma Land Run Monument. Say Cheese! Aren't my boys adorable! They are such good picture takers!

















We contiuned to Brick Town and headed to one near Toby Keith's restaurant. We were looking all over the place and even got all confused on where we were suppose to be looking and ended up in the mud of a construction site. Monkey ended up loosing his boot in the mud and Hubby had to go and rescue him and his boot. We ended up having to go to buy new socks for him at Bass Pro Shop near by so we could keep moving on. We did find that geocache though. Thank you Toby Keith geocache person!

We continued on our adventure through Brick Town and found one of the two geocache we tried but it was getting late so we had to give up on the last one even though we think we were close. We headed back to Toby Keith's restaurant and ate some yummy slightly over our budget food and then headed home. It was a long fun day and I enjoyed spending my Mother's day with my boys having a fun adventure around the city!

Holiday Traditions?

I'm so excited to be co-hosting with Melissa! I have been a long time reader & finally got around to co-hosting! I can't wait to see all of your holiday traditions & I'm sure add a few to my list too! Holiday Traditions? What are those? I'm not sure we have any set up in our family. We never really had anything that we did every year growing up either. So I'm not surprised that we haven't thought about setting anything up for our kids either. Last year we tried doing the  Three Wise Men Gifts  but I of course bought more than just 3 gifts. So what is the plan this year for holiday traditions in our house? Bass Pro Shop Winter Wonderland to visit Santa Three wise men gifts  One Santa gift plus the stocking Baking cookies at Granny & Great Popa's house Baking cookies at Grandma & Popa's house with cousins & then heading to the local fire department & police station to share with the men & women that keep us safe throug

My Pregnancy Story with Monkey

So I have one of those crazy "I didn't know I was pregnant" stories. Yes I didn't know I was pregnant until I was pretty far along but I will get to that.  In May 2008 we picked up and moved out of state. At this time we had been completely off birth control for 2 years and nothing. We also found out when we first started trying that I have PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome)  which basically meant "good luck getting pregnant". We decided that we would start the adoption process if we were not pregnant by the time we were 30 so we had a few years (still do actually! Yeah God!) So we were just enjoying life in Oklahoma and enjoying the small town life. Every Sunday morning we would walk down the street and enjoy breakfast at Selena's, we'd sit on our front porch and talk with the neighbors, and visit family in town at least once a week. Starting close to October I started feeling like something was wrong with me so I went to the OU campus in Tu
