Here are some pictures and videos of our little #12! I tried to take some play by play videos...thinking it would be the next best thing to being here to see him firsthand! Tomorrow is our last game and I expect it to be a COLD and MESSY one!


This pic was taken just before he got that kid's flag! I thought I was videoing but had switched the camera back to take still pics....would've been a great video and I was so upset I missed getting this good view on tape. :(

That's him at Center :)

Here are some short videos of Tag doing what he is SUPPOSED to do!:

This is one of him getting a flag...but the stinkin coach was standing right in front so you can only see him hold it up afterwards. (sorry the videos are showing up so small)

He & another boy almost had the flag in this video below...they did run him out of bounds tho!

And here are some videos of Tag doing what he's NOT supposed to do! ;) :

Tulsa State Fair

We had a great time at the fair! It started out a little rainy, but ended up being a nice night.

This is some HUGE statue in front of the arena.



We ran into our friends Ryan, April, Wes and Ememt while we were there, so we were able to get a family pic!

Jumbo corndogs! Definitely a favorite!

Yummmmy!

Bella's first ride....she kept saying she wasn't scared...

Poor girl started crying just before it started tho. But then she loved it!




Brave little Tag with his hands in the air! Tommy's dream is for him to LOVE roller coasters so they can ride together!

Tag and I went on a scary pirate ride....Tag was scared to death...had his head hid in my lap. I must admit, I didn't like the pitch black part of it AT ALL!

Ready to slide!!

The Charlie Daniels Band was there playing!

Enjoying a yummy elephant ear!

Bella was pooped and conked out on way home!

The Tooth Fairy paid us a visit last night!!!!

We had begun to wonder if Tag was ever going to lose a tooth! He actually lost one on top a couple years ago by bumping it when playing. (And the permenant tooth is still not showing any signs of coming in in that spot!) But this is his first "official" tooth to lose! It's been wiggly for a couple weeks and he's not wanted to mess with it much. Then a couple days ago I noticed that the new tooth was already coming in behind the loose one. Anyway, last night we worked on it and finally it came out! When we pulled that top tooth out a while back, he got VERY upset with seeing the blood...and I think just the feeling of that root popping (ick!). But this time he was super excited! One of the first things he said was how he couldn't wait to get to school to tell Miss Newburn, his teacher! ;) I wished I would've been videoing him...he raised his fist in the air and said "I finally lost my first tooth!!". Too too cute! Way to go, Tag!!!!


Holding up that tiny baby tooth right after we pulled it!

I tried to get him to reenact some of his excitedness for the camera...lol =)


This morning before school....showing off that new "gap"!

The tooth next to the one he just lost is also loose...so I'm sure the Tooth Fairy will be coming again soon! :) I must say, it gets more and more difficult as the kids get older to answer the questions as to whom the Tooth Fairy (or Santa, Easter Bunny, etc) is and how they get in the house!!

Taylor Swift Concert

As I mentioned in my last post, Bella and I went to the Taylor Swift concert! We had a blast together and I hope we always will be close and do things like this together. She really is alot of fun to be with. :) I was so excited for her first concert to be Taylor Swift because she just loves her songs so much...sings them with all her heart! And Taylor Swift really seems to be a nice, gracious girl, which makes it even better for all these little girls who are watching her and looking up to her! At one point during the concert the crowd got SO LOUD and Taylor just stood there with her hands on her heart and tears in her eyes (you could see her face clearly on the side screens) and she finally said that she promises she will never forget what that feels like, to stand there with a sold out arena screaming for her. She may say that at all her concert stops, but it's nice to see someone grounded and appreciative. Anyway, I'll just let you look at the pictures! They're much more entertaining than my rambling! ;)

The BOK Center is really beautiful at night....the glass lights up blue. It's a really pretty building.

Gloriana....I didn't know them at all, since I don't listen to much country! But they were good!

Trying to pass the time until it was Taylor's time to come out!

Looking out over the arena...she was in awe of all the people! There was still another level above us too!

Kelly Pickler...I did know her from American Idol!

We LOVED her shoes!

Finally it's Taylor!!!

Bella kept asking why she was swinging her hair like this! ha!

Her hair is gorgeous!





This is when she was standing there with her hands on her heart.
