I know Moxie is defined as a noun but if you ask me Moxie is more of a VERB because Moxie is so totally an action word! It's time to re-write the Dictionary Merrian and Webster...just sayin...
I was asked to host Moxie Mona (in Oklahoma) as she treks across the country and shares her virtual road trips-Mona is a jet-setter as you can see below, racking up those frequent flyer miles as she makes stops across the US.
Mona had a wonderful time in Oklahoma-before we get started on what mona saw and did, here are a few facts about my great state:
- Oklahoma became a state in 1907
- Oklahoma has 55 distinct Native American tribes
- Before Oklahoma was a state it was known as Indian territory
- Oklahoma has more man-made lakes than any other state
- Oklahomas State flower is Mistletoe
- Oklahoma summers are HOT and HUMID
Moxie Mona Visits Oklahoma
She went to her first OU Sooners game but due to security levels/measures for the stadium she was restricted to stay dry(lucky girl) and watch from the truck-she wasn't alone as you can see
She had a BLAST at the BA Tigers game
She cheered them on from the stands
Mona had a comfy seat to cheer on her fav HS football team(Eric has Moxie too)
Mona had a great time at Tiger field
It just hapened to be rockin rib fest while Mona was in town: Downtown Tulsa
There was a comic convention in town as well, the nerdies in my life attended: I couldn't convince my shaggy headed son to carry around a wonder woman doll at a comic convention-I have OBVIOUSLY failed him as a parent...because he apparently had no issues with this big brown blob
Moxie Mom could take him
