Weekend Fun

We had a wonderful weekend! We have been so busy lately and even though we were "doing stuff" this weekend, it was nice to be with friends and family.

Friday, Mitch got me tickets to Jake Owen and Jason Aldean! I love love love Jake Owen and he really only got me the tickets because he knows my love for Jake Owen, but Jason Aldean was actually great! He put on an awesome concert! Since it was so last minute and the fact that we sat pretty high up, the tickets were a great price. This was my second time to see Jake Owen and he was just as good! I saw him a few years ago at Cains, and it is hard to beat that atmosphere of Cains, but even though he was the opener for Jason Aldean, he played for over an hour and it was just amazing!
We didn't get home until after midnight and we were exhausted because to had to get up Saturday and drive to Bentonville.


We spent all day in Bentonville with Mitch's parents for Mother's day. It was so good to see them and celebrate. We hung out in the morning, went on a hike at Tanyard Creek in the afternoon. We love hiking, and even though this isn't your intense "real" hiking, it is a fun and pretty trail. We would always go up there when we lived in b'vill. There is a pretty waterfall at the end of the trail and with all the rain they have gotten it was crazy!!! It was so pretty!
That evening we had an early dinner. Mitch's dad grilled out steaks and we ate outside, it was a gorgeous day!!





We got home around 9 and had some friends over. Katie, Tom, Jamie and Taylor came over and it was so nice to be able to visit with old friends. We love each one of them and are blessed to have them in our lives. We don't get to see Jamie and Taylor often, so it was nice to catch up.

Sunday, we went to church with my mom for Mother's day. My brother played in church for her and it was so neat! She loved it! After service, we went back to their house, grilled out, ate by the pool and watched golf. It was another pretty day! I am loving this beautiful weather!




This evening we finally finished our front flower bed. We did the trees about two weeks ago and were holding off on the flowers due to the weather. But we finally got them planted and all the mulch down. We are only missing one rose bush and it will be complete.


This week we are busy, but we have some fun things planned! It is my last full week of school!! I cannot believe summer is here. We have some fun activities at school this week and a field day on Friday. Also, Mitch got THUNDER PLAYOFF TICKETS for the game this wednesday!!! We are so excited! We have a list, kind of like a bucket list of things we want to do together in our life... some are big and will have to be done later in life and some are just little small things.. like run a half together. But anyway, going to a thunder playoff game is on it and we are so excited! We are now just hoping they pull off a win Monday or it could be a very stressful game wednesday night. We are also going to a drillers game this week with Katie and Tommy.

We are also trying to nail down an book a small trip for our anniversary. We have several ideas and can't decide what to do. We are going to be gone sooooooo much this summer, we were thinking something small and close. We are actually going to be in Vail, CO on our acutal anniversary, but we want to celebrate just the two of us when we get back. We are deciding between a few places.... Branson Creek- it's always fun, but we were kinda wanting something "new". There is a golf course in TX we have both been dying to play and it is called Tour 18. It is in Dallas and it is a replica course where each hole is a replica of a famous hole from a golf course. It is super neat and we are thinking that might be something new and fun to do. Also dallas has a Top Golf and we want to go there as well.  Another is to just stay here in Tulsa, golf, go to a nice dinner and stay at the Mayo Hotel, which is where we stayed after our wedding before we left for our honeymoon. We have always talked about making that our tradition, staying at the Mayo, but I don't know that we will always be in Tulsa and able to do that. But since we are traveling so much, I am leaning towards that idea. Starting on May 29th through June 13, we are not going to be home but one night! We are going to New Orleans and then the day after we get back we are going back to Bentonville for church camp. Then when we get back from that we will only be home 1 week until we leave for 7 days in Vail and the day after we get home I have having 9 girls from school coming over for a girls weekend!! Lets just say the month of June is crazy busy! So the first week of July is when we will celebrate our anniversary! We are doing a lot already, but we both think it is important to always make time and celebrate our anniversary.

Let me know if y'all have any fun little trip ideas. We are always open to new and fun things!
Hope y'all have a wonderful week!
