Baby, you're a firework!

The first few weekends in September were packed with excitement. Labor Day weekend was a busy one! Friday night I got to catch up with a good friend, Sarah Haney, who I had met at church camp many years ago. I drove to Cushing and we had a great time reminiscing and meeting her friends.


Saturday I drove to Norman, ready to see a bunch of friends I had not seen in awhile. Joe and Joy played host and hostess to me all weekend and let me stay in their guest bedroom. They are such wonderful friends, I don't know what I would do without them! I celebrated my good friend Clark's birthday Saturday and Sunday night with a group of people I used to hang around ALL the time in my college days! It was nice to reunite with the old gang and have a good time. Sunday ended up with an all day movie marathon with Joy and Joe :)



On the 10th I went with a group of friends to Choctaw, Oklahoma for the annual Oktoberfest event. This is actually the first year I went! They had all kinds of food, beer, wine, shopping, and entertainment. John, Stephanie, Tim, Joey, Kari and I all rode together to the festival. I wasn't in the mood for beer (even though I love trying different kinds of beer) so I tried out different German wines instead. Very tasty! :) It was a fun and different evening and I definately would like to take Ryan next year!


The following weekend I took my sister-in-law Allison to Tulsa for the Katy Perry concert as an early birthday present. Unfortunately I had to work as manager on duty that Saturday morning, so we got a late start driving to Tulsa. But it all worked out and we made good timing. We stayed at the Doubletree in downtown Tulsa - BEAUTIFUL hotel! We got all dressed up Katy Perry style and had a blast at the concert. Katy did not dissapoint! Her singing, costumes, and set designs on stage were just as fun and crazy as in her videos! Oh and the best part - we had floor seats so we were very close to the stage!!!
