Oklahoma City Trip!!

















This past weekend, I met David in Oklahoma City to spend the weekend together. I am missing him like crazy. He will finally be back home on March 28th, so I hope this month flies by. My mom offered to keep Katie and Lacey, so I dropped them off in Conway on Friday afternoon and got on the road. It was about a 4.5 hour drive for me, it wasn't fun, but I was looking forward to seeing David. We both got to Oklahoma City around 6pm and we went to the downtown area called BrickTown and had dinner. We had a great little Italian place called Zio's, it was yummy. They have lots of casinos in the area, so we couldn't pass those up. We went to FireLake Casino after dinner and together we won about $300.00, so decided to call it a night. We slept in on Saturday morning. The Marriott that we stayed at had the most comfortable bed, so we both needed some good sleep. We woke up and finally left the hotel around lunch time. On my way in to OKC, I saw a Marshall's. I love Marshall's a lot better than T.J. Maxx, so we decided to do a little shopping. Of course, everything we bought was for Caroline, but David did get a 100% cashmere sweater for $20. Then we went to a steak restaurant for lunch, it was alright, not the best. Then, off to the OKC zoo we went. We spent close to four hours there, it was so much fun. It was much bigger than our zoo in Little Rock. After, we left the zoo we noticed a casino across the street, so we went in and I instantly won $150.00, so we cashed out and left within 10 minutes of getting there. We headed back to our hotel to get ready for dinner. We went to the Cheesecake Factory, the wait was forever, but it was worth it. We even got an extra piece of cheesecake to go for the hotel. After that we were advised to check out the newest casino called the RiverWind, it was the best by far. Well, one more lucky night, David won over $500.00. So, needless to say, we had a profitable weekend, our winnings paid for all of our fun times. On Sunday, we ordered breakfast in bed and then got packed up and headed to BrickTown for lunch. We ate at Crabtown, it was very good. Then, before we knew it was around 4pm and we both needed to head back to our destinations. I was headed back to Maumelle, David was going back to Wichita Falls, TX :( So, after a long drive home, I stopped to pick up Katie and Lacey and we all three slept very well that night. I forgot to mention that all the walking caused me to have cankles. I was a little worried, but I had a doctor's appt on Monday and she said that was completely normal. I will update about that later. I have lots of updating to do this week, so look for more new posts!!

Goodness gracious! I need to go to the casino with the Kellys. My max winning EVER was like $20, then again, I stay at the nickle slots and give up after loosing $10 or so. I head to the entertainment that's usually going on in the bar area and enjoy the free alcohol! :) Looks like a fun trip! Do you get leg cramps in the middle of the night?! I sure did!

My goodness, maybe you should come with Matt and I to Vegas during our spring break, Miss Lucky! We love going to Brick Town, it's such a fun place. Hope your keeping busy, it's been an interesting week with all this snow the past few days.
