Weekend Update

This weekend we decided to take a trip up to Tulsa, OK. It’s the next big city here. We went to Garden Ridge and Harbor Freight to do a bit of shopping. We picked up a few things for our home that we aren’t able to get here in this samll town. Sometimes you need a big city to get things done. I don’t know if I’ve mentioned this or not, but my sister –n- law here in McAlester have been walking for the past month. She’s even joined Weight Watchers in an effort to get us fit. Now we have all the secrets to success. I’ll keep you posted on all of the results. I’ll post pictures soon hopefully of a smaller me.-lol (So far, I’ve lost 8 pounds!! YES!!)

OSP Rodeo (Oklahoma Prison Rodeo)

Last weekend Ed & I attended the OSP Rodeo. It’s an annual event held here in McAlester were everyone outside of the local prison comes in to see the inmates perform all the horse roppin’ and calf tying tricks they’ve learned. Also other state inmates come to compete against them which makes it pretty fun as well. It was really cool actually. I thought I would be soooo scared with inmates and bulls, but it was WELL guarded to say the least.{smile} One of the highlights of the whole evening was the HUMONGUS funnel cakes. I thought Texas had "Texas Size" Funnel Cakes...yeah no.

Happy Birthday Tiffani & Helen!!

As many of you know or may not know actually, my (Tiffani's) 30th birthday was Aug. 4th. Ed being the wonderful husband that he is, (big smile) surprised me at work with a flower/plant basket of beautiful pink flowers. That was an instant indication to everyone at work, something was going on, so everyone passed saying Happy Birthday. Later that afternoon, Ed surprised me again with a dinner out with family and friends at Chilli's. I really enjoyed the company... along with my MOLTEN CHOCOLATE LAVA!! Scrumptious!! The weekend of the 9th, we strolled down to Texas to celebrate my mother's birthday.(August 11, 2008) I will NOT mention how old she turned. :) Ed and I took her to Spring Creek BBQ and made her smell great with tons of Bath and Body Works. We had a good time hanging out with her. Birthday fun for us both!!
