A Roadtrip...  

Tuesday, May 19, 2009

Yesterday we set out on the road to head up to Oklahoma to see our niece graduate high school...  I meet Amber 8 Years ago as an 10 year old kid that hated me because she didn't want to share her Uncle Daniel.  Time's have changed and Amber has grown into an amazing young lady that has a bright future and if Daniel and I have our way she'll be in the Air Force before the summer is over... See daddy I should have been in recruiting also!!!  
Amber and her FAVORITE Uncle...

Luckily while we were there we were able to see Peyton for the night.  She is getting so big and it is always hard to see that - I still see her as a little girl and now she is into boys and "Twilight".  We are VERY excited to see her later this summer!!  
Sydney and Peyton eating dinner with the whole family!  

It was great seeing everyone and letting the girls meet some of them for the first time.  Watching Amber graduate made me cry - feels like I was just there yesterday and now 11 years later I can see an amazing future for Amber.  The only downside of the whole trip was being rear-ended while driving through CRAZY Dallas traffic on the way home!  But not much more than a scratch on the bumper and we were just glad to escape unscathed!! 
I was extremely BAD about taking pictures this trip and I got 3 - yes that was a 3.   But my last picture is of were Daniel grew up...
Pretty huh?  This is Lake Texoma - right down the road from Daniel's childhood home.
