Father's Day Weekend

• We've just returned from our mini-vacation to Norman and southern Oklahoma. Here are the highlights:

- Pool party at Uncle Bane's where Mason swam for hours

- Photo shoot with baby Asher

- Playing with Mimi, Grandpa Trent, Aunt Betsy, Aunt Jessica and Uncle Scooter, Aunt Kitty and Uncle Derek, and G. Aunt Stacy

- Visit to Arbuckle Wilderness (well...sort of...we didn't pay for the full tour, but the econo-tour made the boys just as happy...all they wanted was a "prize" from the gift store anyway)

- Playing at Baba's house in Ringling

- Carter falling and splitting his lip open 5 minutes after we got to Baba's house (see the blood on his new kitty cat that he bought at the gift store?)

- Going "down to the barn" with Aunt Stacy and walking barefoot in the creek (she said there weren't snakes, but I see snake tracks in the pictures)

- Mason practicing the piano (scales make lovely background music)

- Mason getting bitten on the face by Mimi's big dog (who obviously doesn't like hugs from kids) and having to go to the urgent care center for "liquid stitches"

- Dinner with the whole family at the Boomerang (where I chased Carter around the building for two hours)

- Running into Mimi and Aunt Stacy at a restaurant on the way out of town (they say they were just shopping and happened to see us, but I think they tailed us to the restaurant :-)
