home from the sooner state

I flew out to Oklahoma Friday at about 10:00am

Susanne met me at the airport with Sophie.

It was pretty crazy b/c I get a call from the cousin lauren, as i am waiting for sus

she is yelling into the phone that she can see me, and she in under the SW sign!

She was picing up her friend katie, and we happened to be there at the same time!

it was cool, b/c then i got to see baby ben!!!!

anyways, susanne, lo, ben, sophie, and i hung out for about 10 minutes!

friday 2.29.08

we all went to 501 cafe: susanne, sophie, sister sus, and me
sophie had pulled her pony tail thing out and had a crazy mohawk!!!!

drooling up a storm!

sus and soph, aren't they the cutest?

seriously, don't you just want to eat her?

we went to the park afterwards, and she was just having a blast.

i musta brought the warm CO air with me, b/c it was about 70 degrees!

it looks as though my dear friend is pushing her

first born daughter into the duck pond... hmmmmm

"here ya go sophie, just a little bit closer"

me, sus, and soph

(i guess sus decided it would be too much trouble to push soph in, that's why she's not wet)

i am holding my socks, b/c i had to take them off, too hot

looking for ducks

me making sure she does not touch goose poop

sus's 16-week belly

sophie's 15 month old belly!

sus & chris's house dog: ninnah

HUG-A-PUG

chris (sus's hubby) & ninnah

me and susy sitting on the porch listen to the boys

play bob dylan. we then headed to Braum's...

yum.

a classic "sus" face :)

she claims she is not a hippie, b/c hippies live in vans,

don't drive anywhere

(wait how do they live in vans, but not drive, sus... hmmm?),

and they don't eat out. Those are the only criteria that make up

a hippie, according to sus. But she lives in one room (like a van),

only drives b/c she lives in Okla, and doesn't hardly ever eat out.

she is a total hippie.

I mean c'mon, we made homemade hummus and pitas for dinner.

saturday 3.1.08

Gram reading her letter to OSU to get financial aide

after she was accepted to the

OSU PhD Clinical Pschycology Program in 1973

sunday 3.2.08

at gram's after church, Lo and ben

ben LOVES all sports, watching with his papa brad

at 4pm sus and i headed out to the airport

but first we stopped at the froese's

to see laura (it's her bday today, she's old), andy, tucker, and yoda

see their blog for the Goodle tucker (it's really a golden doodle, but

it just makes more sense to shorten it to Goodle)

and yoda is a white mini schnauzer

tucker is the funiiest dog that you ever did see

i could stare at him for hours

and yoda hates me.

we did not take any pics, b/c we left our stuff in the car

as to not contaminate anything (laura has the flu)

then we stopped by Sauced in OKC

it is a cute pizza/coffee/alcohol/artist place

sus holding a vase

it looks like an add for odwalla, but nope,

just sitting in front of the fridge

cool atmosphere (pic without flash, which suits the coffee shop)

Then we look, and there is massive amts of lightning

and we had been talking to cameron all day

about my flight being delayed (there was about 3in of snow in denver)

and it had been delayed from 7:30 to 9:40

and then when sus dropped me off

delayed until 10:18, but they swore it was still gonna come.

then it got delayed til 11:30

then 12:00am

then 12:30am

then 1:18am

and the plane got in to okc about 12:50am and

we boarded and left about 1:30am

poor cam had to wait up for me so he oculd pick me up.

we got into bed at 3am, and he woke up for class at 7am.

but i am back and it feels good to be home.

susanne r: i sat next to a guy that went to UNC and knew Reed!
