Alona comes to visit!!!

Alona came to visit over Labor Day weekend! It was so fun to have her here! We stayed up almost every night talking super late! She is such an awesome cousin of mine! I took her to the OKC Bombing Memorial and to check out Bricktown. We played lots of card games and just hung out! It was a great weekend! Thanks so much for coming Alona!!

The OKC Memorial

It was very sobering for me to take her here for her to see for the first time! I always seem to have a flood of emotions every time I go there. With the 9-11 ten year anniversary coming up it seemed so revert there. I am glad I had an excuse to go!

This is the surviver tree.

Rest of the weekend!!

Alona made Ryan pose for this picture! She was so angry with him because he kept beating her. She says he is the luckiest card player there is. Guess I need to take him to Vegas with me next time!!!

Sunday dinner on the patio! Finally some nice weather! Thanks Alona!

Dance Party!!!
Somehow the last night she was here it turned into a dance party! The kids had a blast dancing around on the table! Man do they have some moves. Of coarse the fun has to end sometime and it did with tragedy. Lily slapped Jacob in fun and really smacked him hard. That girl has some punch! Check out her hand mark and his chest!!! It has to be said though that is was so dang hard Jacob actually threw up for the first time in forever! He got beat up by a girl! HEHE

WOW!!!

Saying goodbye!!! They were actually really sad and crying! How sweet!
