airplanes, planets and freeze dried ice cream
Saturday the kids and I went to the Tulsa Air and Space Musem and Planetarium. They are getting ready to renovate the Planetarium with new equipment so we headed out there before they closed it for a couple of months. We saw, sat, and felt airplanes even L had a good time. They also offer tour guides because there is alot of aviation history in Oklahoma. They have an interactive area that changes. Currently they had the Memory exhibit about the brain. Ramsey took a picture next to a real human brain. Not as gross as it sounds it has been preserved and must have come from a healthy person because it looked fake...haha! We also spent more time at the gift shop than we should have because it's really small, but the kids just had to have something...ehem...so did I. Ram got a ground crew airplane set and Rem got freeze dried ice cream, I got a mood ring and L got cheetos. Believe me she was very entertained with them. Then we headed off to the Planetarium for the "BIG" show. The show takes you out to the outskirts of the solar system. They also had 2 smaller shoes on the Mars rovers, Spirit and Opportunity. Learned something new for you science buffs. {which you may already know}. The rover, at least Spirit was suppose to be a 90 day mission tour, but it is still taking pictures 7 years later, the movie was done 2 years ago so they say 5 years. Isn't that exciting!!! Am I the only one seriously freeking out with how cool that is?!?!?! Anyways...all three kids enjoyed it including myself. The weather was a little windy in the sixties, but it was beautiful outside. Especially if you stood in the sun. The museum is located north of the airport so you also get to hear the jets take off and land as a bonus!

saying goodbye to a decade...
Rog turned 39 Wednesday, before I could remind him that he will never be 30 anything again he mentioned it...we are so much in tune with each other...haha! So we quietly said good bye to a decade, the weather pretty much mimicked Rog's feelings it was overcast and rainy. Didn't last long because the sun came out later and it was beautiful. I did add the picture of the overcast sky from our backyard.
We celebrated with a dinner, thanks to Reasor's Deli ribs, chicken fingers, mac and cheese, macaroni salad, Oklahoma caviar and croissants.
The cookie cake was soooo good!

Day 5 of Spring Colour Week 2011 - White
Last day of Spring colour week! I had so much fun and I also got over my shyness of walking around with my camera and just snapping pictures. I think I'm turning into my mother, she was always snapping pictures I remember telling her to quit but she was trigger happy...haha! that was even before we had digital!!
Have a great weekend!

Day 4 of Spring Colour Week - Lavender
I hardly notice lavender, and having boys {until miss L came along} it really was out of my color spectrum. So I only have a few pictures of this color...it was difficult for me! and fun at the same time, when I spotted it I was excited!!
Below is the side entrance to the market of the Stonehorse Restaurant. It's really yummy located at Utica Square for those of you that recognize it. It also smelled wonderful...light sent not overpowering. You could smell the wisteria from the end of the street.
Beautiful creeping flox from my front yard that thankfully comes back every year {with absolutely no care on my part} and keeping my fingers crossed that it will start to multiply. It forms a beautiful mound of color when it gets full.
A beautiful wall quilt from the OKC Winter Quilt Show that I had attended this year. I don't recall the designer of the quilt {don't think I wrote any of them down and I didn't even take pictures of the labels, but I can tell you it wasn't made by me.} There was a whole series and the colors were bright and beautiful. I can't stop saying beautiful...haha!
Hope everyone is enjoying all the colors!
