I have gotten a few emails asking about Daddy and how he is doing-his radiation treatments are going well and he is ornery as ever. He sells mangosteen and they have a new face cream line out now so that is keeping him busy telling everyone he meets about this product. Daddy doesn't know a stranger!

---------------------------------------


Mr gp works in the BOK building in downtown Tulsa-he is one of the many building engineers that keep the BOK tower running smooth-The beans and I decided to surprise mr gp with dinner one evening since he was working a double shift. Here are a few pics

The BOK Tower as of right now is the tallest building in Oklahoma-I believe OKC is building one that will be taller

We went on the roof and snapped a few pics

The New BOK Center

My confession for today: Happy Birthday to my mr gp

Fall break

Geesh what a week, I do not even remember when I posted last...BRB

Okay back, I last posted on Wednesday(I had to open a new window and check)-has it only been 2 days cuz it seems like a whole month has passed!

Most of you know I LOVE this time of year-I enjoy when the beans are out for any type of break-this week was fall break-they only had school Mon & Tues,which meant I got to sleep in...YAY!

Mr gp has also been off work since Oct friggin 6th(he had a BUNCH of vacation time to use up)-he wakes up at 7am and says "man I didn't sleep at all last night-it musta been the full moon" bet you didn't know I was married to a warewolf? Well neither did I! so I say "go back to bed-I'll get the beans off to school" While he was sleeping I inspect his clothes to see if they had any wolvereenesque tears in them i kid i kid...sorta -then he wakes up again at exactly 11:55 just in time for 'Days of Our Lives' yes he watches soaps BUT don't tell anyone I told ya-he still isn't over the fact that Passions has gone off the air!

This has gone on since Oct 6th-but I am not bitter-nope...mr gp will finally go back to work sat night at 7pm BUT he is off alllllllllllll next week then back to work at 7pm next sat then off alllllllll the next week-he had a BUNCH of vacation time to use up-Oh yes I already mentioned this-well I haven't mentioned-'enough already' GO BACK TO WORK-your driving me friggin NUTZ! ok I feel better now-and if you ever read my blog mr gp-I Love You But I Love You more when your at work! i kid i kid...sorta

So needless to say fall break wasn't near as exciting for me as in years past-oh don't get me wrong I so enjoyed sleeping in...I kid I kid, I was glad everyone was home but...

Everyone was bored and everyone wanted to do something different and everyone thinks we own a money tree,everyone said we had No food-we had food just not a bunch of crap-which tweens and teens LOVE,everyone picked on everyone...you get the picture-it was a regular bitch-fest around here...

Middle bean did get contacts-yep he did-I took him today to pick them up and for him to learn how to put them in and take them out-it took one hour thirty-seven minutes and fifty seconds for him to learn this,not to mention 6 phone calls from oldest bean saying "When are you coming home?" AND Lilest bean saying "seeeeeee MOM we coulda gone to the bookstore and got me that cat book-it will probably be another hour before he learns how to take them contracts out!" See I am tellin ya this is what I heard all week!

Yes I know he looks like he just woke up-thats because he did just wake up and yes I know he needs a haircut-that is on the agenda for tomorrow

With the contacts in he has 20/20 vision YAY!

We also went to the pumpkin patch this week-well it's not really a 'patch' but more like a big building with all kindsa fall goodies to purchase-and of course NO one could agree on which pumpkin patch to visit-the area only has one on every street corner-but since gas was down to $2.49 we decided to drive to Bixby-about 15mins away...

Oh heck yeah middle bean looks happy huh?

I am blaming EVERYTHING on Puberty right now-and I promise I told that boy I did not know him with his hair looking like that-he later walked up to me and asked me to help him and I looked at him and replied Oh honey did you loose your mommy... Lost child Lost child...

So he tried to throw this at me....

So I ran as fast as the junk in my trunk would allow-but then he cornered me with this one and that one is pretty scary if you ask me...I told him since he put his hat on he could call me Mom...

PUBERTY I Tell Ya!!!!

Lilest bean got five pumpkins and she named them 'Uno,Dos',Tres,Quatro and Cinco

The girls were very happy with their pumpkin finds

Don't go to bed yet...I still got a pay it forward winners post and the Traveling plate post coming up

My Confession for today: Is it Monday yet???

Lights Camera Action

You may or may not remember me posting last week about how mr gp and I got ourselves invited out Friday night, you also may or may not remember me saying mr gp isn't very big on going out-he very rarely let's his hairs errr hair(not plural cuz he is balding) down-

See the 'patron' banner I immediately thought of amy amy bo bamey and had a shot in her honor...I kid I kid no shots for me but I did think of you amybo




We were invited to my favorite restaurant Los Cabos for drinks,dinner and music-thats the band up there but I forget their name-they were really really good tho'- I was a chair dancin' fool, I think I rubbed a hole in the chair...they played some Tom Petty,Jimmy B, a lil bit of everything

Here we got proof that I was able to drag mr gp out for the night-aren't we just the cutest couple you ever did see?


This is my SIL Denise and her main squeeze Keith-they are almsot as cute as mr gp and me! ;-)
We got to sit outside by the water-another thing mr gp isn't a big fan of BUT it was A-W-E uh huh-S-O-M-E!


This is my other SIL Gena-her hubby Paul was a punk and didn't join us-she is the one who invited us out-she is one wild and crazy chica! Look at her T-shirt-it reminded me of several blogs I read-she got it at the Tulsa State Fair




Here is more proof we closed down the patio seating of Los Cabos...errr Okay we made it past sundown-as you can see mr gp is a HUGE OU Sooner Fan-I LOVE that man!



My confession for today: It was so good to get out and let our hair down!

Tulsa State Fair

The Tulsa State Fair started yesterday...

I have so many memories of the fair, like throwing up after riding the tilt-a-whirl,kissing Robert on the sky-ride,levi jean jackets,rain,kissing Aaron on the sky-ride,throwing up after riding the sizzler,kissing Matt on the sky-ride,throwing up after riding the himalaya...ok ok ok I didn't throw up after riding the himalaya-the one ride I could tolerate and they always played the BEST music on the himalaya-

I am NOT a huge ride person but....
Why just this past summer I took a ride on the wild side and rode a coaster at Silver Dollar City in Branson.

Last night mr gp says "Let's go to the fair" I have not been feeling good and I knew that I would NOT be able to eat everything in site...oh the gyros, oh the GIANT turley legs,OHHH the funnel cakes,carmel apples, cotton candy,grilled corn on the cob,corn dogs,deep fried tators,pizza,Italian sausages,burgers,fried gator...the list goes on and on...I go to the fair to EAT! I should friggin be a food critic-yanno where they pay me to eat!

I personally think that is why he suggested going last night...cheaper for him IF'n I can't eat!
here are a few pics from our night....told ya I have been sick I look like Capital S-h-i-t! TY lilest bean for gettin my small eye *wink* Tena

Lilest bean and oldest bean yiyiyi Sisterly Love and then some....

Yes Oldest beans 'boy-friend' came with us-he apparently doesn't like havin his pic taken unlike my girl beans who are hams to say the least...

Thats my lil man-middle bean aka Reese-he makes my heart beat and to think I told the dr to take him back when he was born...pffft

and here is mr gp I NEVER said take him back and he still makes my heart beat! oh and all that TRASH behind them is NOT ours the fair is one NASTY place I tell ya!

heres Deb  (my new biz partner-while she was hard at work on our new clothing line I was out having fun-I LOVE ya Deb!) some Funnel cake and other snacks

We let oldest bean her BF and middle bean go walk around and ride some *gag* rides then we all met up to go through the petting zoo...

Lilest beans FAVORITE part of the fair....

That was the closest I have ever been to a 'roo'
