Expanding our horizons... testing the OKC waters!

Steve and I finally made a trip out to Oklahoma City!  I wish I had more pictures than I do, but of course I forgot my camera and Steve's phone was slowly loosing it's batter power, so I guess my oh so descriptive words will have to do.... 

We wanted to do something different so we decided to check on the OKC Science Museum.  It was a lot of fun.  We spent three hours going down two-story slides, learning how to drive a segway, playing with legos and trying all kinds of experiments. 

After the Science Museum we headed down to Bricktown and ate some delicious bar-b-que.  Steve had fried okra for the first time!! YUM!  The next day Steve had to take wake up waaaay to early to get take his military physical exam which took over 5 hours, crazy! Then, he went on to take his Assembly of God credentialing test which he passed! YES! If you didn't know, Steve is trying to get into the Air Force Chaplaincy Candidate program.  He has finished all of the tests and paperwork so now we just wait.  We are supposed to hear back around the beginning of December. Keep us in your prayers!


Last, this week is Turn Tulsa Pink week.  AKA, breast cancer awareness.  We had read in the paper about some of the downtown Tulsa building being lit up pink so last night we went to check it out...

Well, that's all for now, it's getting late...ok not really, but I'm tired :)

Living life in Tulsa, OK

The past few weeks Steve and I have had the opportunity to experience some real Tulsa culture!  First, we were blessed with 2 tickets to a Tulsa Shock (Tulsa's professional women's basketball team) game.  We have both never been to a professional basketball game, so we really enjoyed it.  I think one of the things we enjoyed the most was being able to go in the BOK Center.  I state of the art facility built in 2003 for $194 million!!! Crazy! 

Then, this week, we went to the Tulsa State Fair.  Steve and I kept hearing all about the fair and it seemed like a really big deal so we decided to go check it out.  Of course, we went on the 2 for the price of 1 night since we are frugal and it's kind of expensive (at least to us non-Tulsans.)  It was pretty fun, we saw some crazy fried foods, lots of people and some fun animals!  Enjoy the pictures!

 Last, a few weeks ago, Steve and I went out to a restaurant called McNellies in downtown Tulsa.  Every Wednesday they have $3 burger night, so of course we had to check it out! The burgers were great!  But what was very interesting was this dumpster we saw right outside the restaurant....
