Burns/Bowles Weekend

This weekend we have Travis' Cousin Brooke and her husband Doug Burns kids-Mary Beth and Austin staying with us! (I need to learn how to do apostrophes..who wants to correct and teach me?) The Burns lived in Costa Rica as missionaries for 4 years. It was such a blessing to have them close to me while I was in Costa Rica to go get filled up with family time and love. They are truly an amazing family. Yesterday, we went and saw Captain America, went to our favorite BBQ spot-Coopers- and then of course topped of our night with delicious Sweet Sammies. We walked into Sweet Sammies and were greated by the owners-Kelly and her husband Dan- and Austin asked us how we know them...uh its because we go there all the time..Regulars. Then we got them hooked on Lost and watched that till midnight.

Today we are planning on splitting up and MB and I going shopping and the boys something with sports and getting hurt or whatever.

Travis' ESPN: Every College Football Player reported to their camp on Wednesday. TCU ranked number 15 in the country, CU has the toughest schedule in the country, OSU could be the dark horse in the Big 12, shaping up to be a great football season.

Tricia's Randomness: Went to Tulsa/OKC last weekend for Libby and Ali's Nursing Graduation from OU and then Ali's bachelorette party at White Water Bay. So fun, I love my friends. Crazy story though. We were leaving White Water and heard screaming and turn around and a woman was having a massive seizure, eye rolled back, foam out of the mouth and then she hit her head so there was a pool of blood around her. Ok...so my fear is fainting. Even when people roll their eyes that makes me weak. So this was frightening in the least and shook all of us up for awhile. But on a happier note, Ali and Matthew are getting married the last weekend in August and they are just an amazing, Godly couple that we are so thrilled to walk alongside of them in marriage.

Tuffy Tales: Well, I am still on this leash thingy and don't like it. I made a new bestie last night, her smell was like fresh bones, they call Mary Beth.

Joys and Pains of Learning: We went on a unusual date on Wednesday. We went to this place called Painting with a Twist. You bring your own bottle of wine and go learn how to paint the "object" of the night. We painted a sunset and it was so fun for us to go do something different! This week take your hubby or wifey on a date and do something different!!
