We were able to spend a whole week in Oklahoma this year! It was super relaxing and fun to be with the whole family again after over a year. We got off the plane, handed Bo to my mom, and took off for Matt's first NBA game, Thunder vs Mavericks. OKC are some serious fans and the game was great, ending in a last-second three-pointer for the win. And the crowd goes wild.
Bo had tons of fun with his Uncle Rhino, Aunt Leesycat, Abu, and Coco. He's so funny, making up all those nicknames.
And Tucker . . . who seemed to be getting a little jealous of his small houseguest, but took advantage of all the toys lying about.
One of the highlights for me was getting to meet this little girl:
Miss Emily Enright!
We gave her this hood like all the Kenyan kids wear and she didn't want to take it off.
Emily's Mama and I went to college together but it had been a year and half since I'd seen Johanna . . . and much longer since I'd seen her husband Danny. Danny was doing a training program in OKC and Jo and baby Emily came down to be with him over Christmas. We got to leave the babes at home for New Years Eve and go out, which is rare for both of us, and we saw them again when they came over to watch the Fiesta Bowl.
Of course Bo was his wild self.
This is Bo getting pulled away and restrained.
And yes, Bo is in his new OSU fleece.
We also stopped by my mom's school on their work day so all of the teachers could meet him . . .
Had dinner at a place where they blow glass . . . random but interesting!
Good times. It went too fast! But now we're home again. Our friend Lori and her little girl picked us up from the airport . . . what a nice welcome back to Long Island.
