A Visit From the Underwoods

We had a great time with Eric's

parents last weekend.  The weather was perfect

for all of the activities we planned.

We took them to Tulsa's Oktoberfest, 

which is a German Festival.  

We ate some pretty good food and

watched some German Dancers and listened 

to some German Music!  After we spent

some time there, Eric took us to the

University of Tulsa to give us a tour

of the Law School.  We even got to sit in on

a lecture, which was pretty interesting.

On Saturday, we woke up REALLY early

to drive to Norman, Oklahoma for the 

OU/Kansas State Game.  

It was an 11:00 AM game, so we had to leave

Broken Arrow around 6:00 AM.  We like to

tailgate and beat the rush into Norman.

When we got to town, we dropped by

our usual tailgate for a brief moment,

and then we headed to a neat restaurant

on Campus Corner called 747.  We ate

Hamburgers and Chicken Wraps for 

Breakfast before heading into the game.

The weather was absolutely perfect.

The campus was filled with mums, and they were all gorgeous!

So I think we all know that the

outcome of the game was a bit

disappointing, to say the least.

(To my Kansas State family members,

congratulations, and we'll see you next year)

After the game, we drove into Oklahoma City

for an early dinner at Zio's in the Bricktown

District.  Then we went to the Oklahoma

City Bombing Memorial.  

We made it back to Tulsa in 

time to catch the other football

games we were interested in...

well, mostly just the Notre Dame

Game (My sister-in-law is an alumna).

On Sunday, we went to church

and then out to a yummy lunch at

the Riverfront Grill in Jenks.

It was so fun having my parents

and Eric's parents in the same town.

We all enjoyed our time together.

Sunday afternoon, we planted some

ornamental grass in our backyard.

Our backyard didn't have any kind

of plant in it until we planted the

pretty grass.  We plan to do more

to our backyard as we can.

So, we had a busy weekend,

but it was so much fun!

Who wants to come visit us next?
