Our first official stop was Stillwater, Oklahoma our old college stomping grounds, home of the Oklahoma State Cowboys and my best friend from age 13-college, Colbi! {She and I were inseparable. She even transferred to Union as a senior in high school just so we could graduate together. Our names went together like Beavis and Butthead or Bert and Ernie. Name a wild story about me and I guarantee she was included in the mischief. It was so great spend time together again.} It was homecoming weekend and we planned on staying at the Microtel, because it was the last hotel with vacancies, but when Colbi found that out she insisted we stay with her and Corby. Yes, Colbi and Corby are man and wife and the cutest little doctor couple you have ever seen.
Oh yeah, and they happen to have the cutest two boys you have ever seen as well. Jack and Ty met Shelby and Jesse when they were just tiny little things, but this time they got to seriously play and get to know each other.In this series, their personalities really shine through, especially little Ty the class clown!
I wish I had some 14 year old pics of me and Colbi to upload with our skater bangs and attitudes to compare with these crazy kids!
I have a feeling they are going to give us just as much trouble as we gave our parents...scary! Although, Lucy seems quite intent on keeping Preslie in her place in all of these...maybe she will be the protector.
Holy cow, I cannot stop laughing at Ty! I mean, what other 6 year old has this great of a sense of humor? What a ham!!!
They are wet because they just couldn't stay out of the hot tub even after being warned a hundred times that they better keep dry if they knew what was good for them.
Their neighbors have horses, chickens and a couple of feisty dogs. The kids were in HEAVEN!
A last minute phone call created unforgettable memories for us and the kids! I am so grateful! James also got to see some of his close friends from high school and college. They got together at Walter's studio and jammed on guitar until the wee hours of the morning. He was walking on air! This vacation was his 40th birthday present afterall...I am so glad he had so much fun!
