"American" Summer 2011

The girls and I arrived in Tulsa, OK Aug. 2nd and started off our American summer with getting Lillie's ears pierced!

Isabel loves hanging out with Uncle Justin.

rub a dub dub how many cousins can we get in the tub?!

Isabel's 1st haircut from Aunt Stef.

...then Isabel wanted to play Aunt Stef and "cut" Lillie's hair.

Grammy and Grandpa Cody visit and we take the girls to the OK Aquarium!

This crazy fish breathes air!

bath time in Nonna's tub...

My mom took us on a tour of the new Math and Science Center and the Aquatics Center at Jenks High School. Along with my 10 year HS reunion I thought a tour of the updated school would be good! My friend Megan and I and the girls were the first to see the Jenks planetarium in action - we just happened to be there when the superintendent was, so we got to see it all! Amazing!

Above: See the white dome on top- that's the planetarium. The guy running it asked Isabel her favorite color - she said red... and he turned the whole dome red. Then she said pink and purple and he did it again and again! (the inside of the dome of course, not the outside)

Below: They even recycle!

Olympic size swimming pool...

Dinner at Olivetto!

Stef and I took the girls to the Bounce Barn in Broken Arrow.

The girls loved their summer of playing with friends and family, linken logs, easy bake ovens, slip n slides, tailgates, aquariums, parks, pizza play places and bouncy houses.

Bye Bye from Oklahoma!
