Happy 4th of July!

We had a busy but fun July! We started off by hosting a July 4th party for our Wylie neighbors as well as the Dixons and Halls. We rented a water slide and the kids had a blast swimming, shooting off fireworks, having a sack race, and eating snow cones and other goodies. The adults had a great time hanging out as well!

Lake Travis

The kids and I got home from Tulsa, did laundry, slept, and then we all four got up and drove to Lake Travis with our Wylie neighbors! We all rented condos at a resort right on the lake and had a blast hanging out at the pool, jumping off nearby cliffs, tubing behind the boat that belongs to our friends the Corleys, feeding the deer that were all around the resort, and we even rented a party barge with a slide that we took out into the lake! We ended the trip with dinner in a private room at The Oasis. We even had a visit from a ring-tailed cat that hung out right above us and entertained the kids! It was so much fun to get away and enjoy time with friends!

Tulsa

Tracey and I took the kids to Tulsa for our annual mini-vacay! We rented a cute AirBNB close to downtown and went to the Gathering Place (an enormous outdoor park with gardens, playgrounds, and parks), did some indoor rock climbing, saw Shrek at a drive-in movie, had dinner at a fun restaurant with tons of board games you could play, played even more games at the house, got to witness a friend's adoption of her baby boy via Zoom, and ended the trip by going to a fun waterpark that had some exotic animals on display. There were hardly any crowds ANYWHERE so we weren't too worried about germs!
