THUNDER UPset

Kyle called me at work last Monday to tell me that I needed to cancel any plans we had for Tuesday night because he was going to the Thunder playoff game. I was excited for him and asked who invited him to go. He then said that he got tickets from one of his friends through work and was taking Greg. I’m not going to lie, I felt a little lot slighted for not being his first choice, but I guess that’s what I get for not being a very big sports fan. But then Kyle broke the news that Stacie and Henry were coming, too, which meant I had a cute little nephew to take my mind off of it!

Kyle was so excited for them to come. He’s really been missing his nephews and while we were planning to see Conner soon, we weren’t sure when we’d see Henry again. Kyle came home that night with two big balloons and he giggled as he hid them in the closet for Henry to find. Before they left for the game they had all kinds of fun! It was an 8:30 p.m. game and unfortunately, OKC lost. It was a long ride home and the boys were extremely tired the next morning! Greg, Stacie and Henry stayed in town and had lunch with us before heading out so they could make it to Henry’s first swimming lesson. It was a quick trip, but it was so good to see them.

Henry has grown up so much. He would run around the house, and every now and then, he would stop, point up at the fan, swing his arm and say, “round, round, round!” So intelligent! He knows baby sign language and can also tell you what sounds a cat, dog, pig, bear and cow make. It’s so precious. 


 I love me some fries! 

 They're so good!

Chi-town Shenanigans

The Tuesday before last, I left for a trip to Chicago. The annual ADRP conference was there this year and while I've been in the past, this year was different because our ENTIRE team went. There were seven of us in all, and we had so much fun together! Chicago is a place I've never really been dying to visit. I haven't been opposed, it just wasn't on the top of my list. However, after going there, I definitely want to go back. It's a very clean city and there is so much to do and so many wonderful things to see. Kyle and I will have to plan a trip there some day. If I learned one thing this trip it was that I work with the most awesome people! On the airport parking shuttle on our way home we met a lady. She said she opted to take the full shuttle because she and four of her coworkers had been together for four days and needed a little time apart. We all smiled and nodded as if we understood completely, but in that moment I couldn't. We spent our spare ti...

Love Text

I don’t know if I’ve ever mentioned this before, but I LOVE the first Sex and the City Movie. The second, not so much, but I’m pretty sure everyone in America agrees with me on that one. I watched it while I was sick last week. In the movie, there’s an exchange between Carrie and Big that goes a little something like this: C: “Have you ever written me a love letter?” B: “Does a love fax count?” C: “When have I EVER gotten a love fax?” B: “Oh, I'm sure my secretary sent you one...at some point. What can I tell you, baby? It's just not my style. Besides, those guys had to write. They were separated from their loves by wars and hundreds and hundreds of miles. I'm right here. Hello. You make me very happy.” C: “Yeah, yeah. Put it in writing.” Comic genius. Anyway, that got me thinking that Kyle and I rarely ever stop to focus on what we love about each other. Unfortunately we spend far too much time pointing out things we wish the other would do differently....

Spring Break

Contrary to popular belief, the OSU Foundation is not closed during spring break. In fact, we are open on most of the university-specific holidays. However, I was fortunate to be able to take 1 1/2 days off to spend a little time with the family during their break. My parents, Zach, Stacy and Asher had planned to visit my Donahue grandparents in Kansas, so I decided to tag along. Poor Kyle had to work, but he also got to spend the weekend with Greg and Stacie. They took him to a Thunder game and then out for golf on Saturday. They also found some basketball video game Greg and Kyle used to play as kids so that entertained them for most of Saturday evening. Stacie sent me this photo. They won with a dunk during the final seconds of the game. I think they're excited! :) Back on the farm, we got to spend a little time with Landon, who is now 6 months old. It's hard to believe how big his is! He is even sitting up on his own. Asher did pretty good with him although he did unintenti...
