Monday Funday!

We have a lot of ground to cover today....

Our weekend started last Thursday. We took the boys to the annual City of Katy Christmas Tree Lighting at Katy Heritage Park. The boys had a great time walking (strolling) around the park, listening to Christmas carols and seeing Santa Claus. This is the first time that CRG did not cry when he saw Santa. He now calls him "Ho Ho".

Friday morning I left for Oklahoma City while Katy and the boys left for the ranch. For Brad's 30th birthday (I can't believe I hang out with people that old) his wife, Jill, arranged for myself, Don, and Al to head to OKC for a guys weekend filled with food and football....and a few adult beverages too. Al and I decided to make it a road trip. Thanks to Al, I had my first experience at a Buccee's gas station. That place is crazy! We found a great hole-in-the-wall BBQ joint in Gainesville and were nicely welcomed into Oklahoma by a plethora of casinos.

Friday night we went to the OKC Thunder vs. Washington Wizards basketball game and had a great time. The Thunder won 127-108 in a very dunk-filled, exciting game. After the game, we headed back to Bricktown to hang out and grab a couple of drinks.

Saturday was much of the same with some stellar Guitar Hero battles thrown in. Don was the runaway champ...which is saying a lot. Jill has always been far and away, the best Guitar Hero Rocker I have ever seen!

The end to a great weekend!
