Last night (03/30/2009) we had some pretty major storms pass through Stillwater. Shawnee and I love storms. I mean when most people are seeking shelter we are usually outside watching the hail pound the cement or driving to our church (it sits up on a hill), because of the view. Here's what the clouds looked like last night. It was really pretty awesome. The clouds blew in so fast and before you knew it they were gone. But it is one of the great things about living in Oklahoma. I'm sure my Mom is way jealous.
It seems we've been really busy in March, but we've had a lot of fun. Last weekend Shawnee and I went down to Oklahoma City. Shawnee went to go hangout with one of her best friends, Karin. I stayed and helped Gary hang some drywall in Brayden's future room. I actually had a lot of fun, even though it was hard work. If you put Gary and Nathan in a room together you are sure for some good laughs. The weekend before that we all drove down to Dallas to barbecue at Karri and Jared's apartment. We had lots of fun. We went to the Farmer's Market which is like 2 blocks from their place. Needless to say we loaded up on lots of fruits. Shawnee and I got some awesome pineapple, tangelos, and the best looking and tasting strawberries ever. After the market we all went on a hike. I know you're thinking, "Where in Dallas can someone hike"? Well, we had to drive about 20 minutes away, but we found a place. It was really cool. We also found out that the stroller wasn't exactly "4-wheel" drive.
I usually don't do movie recommendations but we saw "Slumdog Millionaire" earlier in March and it was one of the best movies I've ever seen. Go out and rent it or buy it. Either way it is a really moving and happy movie. Two thumbs way up!

Shawnee spent the first part of March in Tennessee with her mom and her sisters. She had such a great time. It's actually all she talked about for awhile. I know she really misses having her sisters live close to Oklahoma. Shawnee and Cheri drove out to Tennessee early on a Friday morning and got back on a Saturday. They really didn't do much as in sight seeing, but they sat around and talked alot. I think they probably enjoyed that more than they would have wondering Memphis. They did get to eat some really good Barbeque at this place called Neely's. It's one of my favorite places to eat at in Memphis. Shawnee got some really cute pictures with Emmi.
I'm tired and off to bed, I'll finish the rest of this tomorrow.
