Happy Thanksgiving!!

I hope everyone had a fabulous Turkey Day!!  Clay and I had a wonderful first married Thanksgiving!  We had lunch with the Burgess family and followed that up with some social time at the Holmboes.  After relaxing at home for awhile after making the rounds we hung out with Lexi and Kent...always so much fun!

Today was the 7th Annual Turkey Tackle.  A group of Clay's high school/college buddies get together every year for a good old fashioned game of flag football.  It was a great game until Clay got injured right before half time.  His ankle immediately started swelling...ugh...that's going to hurt in the morning!!  

                              Cal and Luke watching their dads - Lee and Dax.

                                                             Run Matt!!

                                                      BLUE 42!  BLUE 42!! GO!

OH!!  And the Christmas tree is already up and decorated!!  WAHOOOO!

Route 66 and Flag Football

This weekend Clay ran his first 12k!!  He was part of a relay team for the Route 66 marathon in Tulsa.  We went to Tulsa Saturday evening and ate dinner at our FAVORITE Asian restaurant, Te Kei's.  YUM!!  The service wasn't too great but the food was quite tasty!!  So I'm really not the type of person to buy lottery tickets but as Clay and I were wrapping up dinner and reading our fortunes....I noticed the "Lucky Numbers" on our fortunes were the EXACT same!!  We had completely different fortunes but the same numbers!  I'm TOTALLY buying lottery tickets this week!  Clay thinks I'm crazy but oh well.  

Sunday morning we woke up pretty early so we could eat breakfast and let his food digest a bit.  We checked out of the hotel and headed up to the race.  He got the time chip and off he went!!  He ran in 1 hour and 14 minutes!  He did so well!  I was so proud.

As soon as the race was over we hopped in the car to head home.  We got home just in time for lunch.  As soon as we got into OKC we pulled into Irma's Burgers!  After we finished lunch we had just enough time to go home and change clothes.  Then we hopped back in the car to go to Clay's flag football game!  Jeez!  It was quite the Sunday.  Unfortunately they lost the game but it was a fun season.  

Phew...well that made me tired just re-hashing everything!

Have a great week everyone!

The first wedding shower in my home!

The hostesses - my mom, me, Shelley (the bride), and Jenny.

The spread!  YUM!!

It was a fabulous time and I think everyone enjoyed themselves!  Shelley got some wonderful gifts to complete her home with Ryan!

Wonderful weekend!!

This weekend our friends Jenny and Scott came into town!  Jenny and I hosted a wedding shower together while the boys played golf.  Our shower for Shelley went wonderfully!  Jenny made the best sandwiches...which we are still snacking on.  Shelley got tons of fun things.  So I think all in all everything went well.  After the shower Jenny and Scott headed back South to Dallas.  Clay and I went to watch some football.  Sunday was also full of lots of football and a Holmboe family dinner to top things off!  We had dinner at Margarita's with Sugar, Nancy, Barney, Cody, Blair, Jens and us.  So much fun!  It's always fun to catch up with family.  

Another great weekend under our belts!

Upcoming events....

So this weekend I am hosting the first wedding shower held in our home.  I am so excited!!  I get to use my new China, my stemware and all my fun stuff we received from the wedding.  YAY!!  This shower has also been a great way to get things done around the house.  Our house is looking so good!!  I love it!  

Also, this weekend our friends Jenny and Scott are coming to visit.  Jenny and I along with my mom are hosting the shower.  Clay and Scott will be playing golf.  

Woo hoo!!  It will be such a fun weekend!!  :)

Weekends

The past two weekends we've spent in Dallas.  Last weekend was spent visiting friends and this weekend was OU v. TX.  We have been doing a lot of traveling lately and LOVE it!!  We'll be home for a little while now...which is nice.  

I can't believe we're coming up on our one year anniversary!!  This year has gone by SO FAST!!  Where has it gone??  I can honestly say this year has been the best ever.  I love being with my very best friend every day!  What more could I ask for?!   

Blogging

So apparently I need to get better at this whole blogging thing.  I have not kept up with it AT ALL!!  Who knows if anyone even reads it anymore since I started slipping around April.  Haha.  

Lately our life hasn't been too exciting.  We're getting very settled into this marriage stuff.  We did have another fabulous weekend.  We had two birthday dinners in a row.  My mom and Clay's mom.  Saturday we went to the OU game and Sunday I helped out my wedding photographer (Jennifer Klotz) at a bridal fair.  

We'll see what this week and next weekend bring us!!  :)

And I'll be thinking of more to blog about...
