Scrappin' It Up Blog Style


I have a wonderful work friend, Katie, that will be leaving the state this month, who did the most amazing thing on her blog during her first year in Oklahoma. Katie took a picture a day to document her life after college. Then her fabulous mama made it into a book for Katie!

Now, I'm not one to scrapbook, so this maybe a viable opportunity for me to scrapbook virtually.  I like the idea of documenting our family history, because all to soon Alexandra will go off to college and I'll wonder where all the time went.  The next four years will be quite important to all of us, so I'd like to keep track of all that life sends our way!

So, let's move on to my first daily post!  This weekend was great!  It was the last day of TEC camp for Alexandra at the University of Tulsa campus.  She studied about GIS technology which is what drives all of our GPS devices and so much more.  IF Alexandra was writing this post, she could tell you about all the ins/outs of GIS technology.  This was her second year at the camp which is provided by the Oklahoma higher regents of Education.  Alexandra went home right after camp and went straight to sleep.  I think all the nights of staying up late in the dorms and waking up early for camp/activities wore her out!

I went to weight watchers with my friend, Danielle and we both lost this week~that's always nice!  Then later that night, Alexandra went to Mema's to help set up for my niece's birthday.  Derek and I went on a downtown double date with Danielle and Quinton.  We had dinner at Yokozuna which is great sushi restaurant in downtown Tulsa.  My favorite dish is the HOT MESS!  I can't tell you what's on it, but I can tell you for sure that it is delicious!  Then we went to the Max, which is an 80's arcade bar, that has great music and even better video games!  Derek was 100 points from being on the high score list for Pacman.  He said I distracted him, but I don't know about that.  On Sunday, I went with my friend, Angela, to her daughter's first film production shot.  It was neat to see the studio and be able to help with Angela's adorable kiddos! Then we went to my niece's birthday party where kids swam and ate cake.

Today, I went to my new work place to observe transitions and morning routines.  I'm excited to work in such a wonderful facility, but I will miss my friends and students at my old school! 

Ok, tomorrow is the 4th of July and time for another post! 

See you then!
