4th of July

Hope everyone had as much fun as we did on the 4th of July! We took the kids to The Oklahoman Centennial Freedom Festival in Bethany (I know, it's a mouth full). I worked a little, and played a lot. They had rides, inflatables, food, crafts a parade, and everything you can possibly imagine. We had more fun watching Sierra and Pierce as they ran from ride to ride. At one point, Brett and Sierra decided to go on a ride and Pierce wasn't quite tall enough, so I took him over to a "kiddie" rollercoaster and the man said, "son, can you step over here so I can see how tall you are?" Well, Pierce marched right over, stood on his very tippie toes and was just tall enough! haha The man thought is was so cute, he let him ride. Well, much to my surprise, I watched him fasten Pierce in (a seat by himself) and I thought, I hope this doesn't go very fast because he doesn't look very secure. That ride took off and if you've ever seen small rollercoasters, they are VERY bumpy! The first time around his eyes were as wide as saucers and I thought he was going to start crying. By the second time around, he was laughing so hard and having so much fun I thought I was never going to get him off! Then, we headed over and they decide to bungie! Sierra was a little timid at first, but by her second time, she was doing back flips (which dad loved) and JB LOVED the bungie and would go really high. The cutest thing to me was sitting back and watching JB...he would talk to every worker, ask a million questions and wasn't shy at all.

We had an absolute blast at the carnival! We ended the day with me and Sierra making cookies and then headed up to UCO to watch fireworks. JB wasn't quite as interested as Sierra, but thought they were cool.

They are both ready for Frontier City. Sure hope they have rollercoasters and bungies because those two are pro's now!!

See everyone soon. Have a great "short" week!
