Not a fan at all

Oklahoma: I'm NOT a fan at all! I was so happy to be back in Texas EARLY Sunday morning. Leven, Trever and I headed to Stillwater, Oklahoma Thursday for his last summer baseball tournament. The drive was very pretty on the Indian Turnpike road, but the drive was also 6 hours long! We watched lots of baseball, ate some good food, watched The Dark Knight Rises (awesome movie), and SWEAT our butts off. I seriously thought Texas was the hottest state, boy was I wrong. Insert picture now:

Leven also took a picture of temp and his read 118!

Let's just say on our 6 hour ride home, we STUNK so bad. For the first time EVER (I believe it was the first time) I could actually smell myself! Gross and gross. Saturday they played both their games early so we had to sit around for 6 hours (this is when we watched the movie, killing time) waiting on all the other teams to finish pool play before we knew if Trever's team made the tournament bracket on Sunday. Only 8 teams advanced for Sunday bracket play. Sooo...while sitting in the movie theatre we again, STUNK so bad! I felt so sorry for the people around us. Long story short and believe me it's a really long story. They made bracket play (seeded 7th actually) and won their first game on Sunday but lost second. They ended up around 4th place! Awesome job. His team got to play one game on Oklahoma State University's field:

Leven and I headed back late Saturday night and Trever stayed with another player and his family. We needed to get back to get this sweet little lady. Insert another picture:

While we were away Taydem had a blast with Nana and Papa and all her cousins. Thursday afternoon we had their picture taken for the Tatum Eagle football program. It's a really BIG deal to get that picture put in the program every year. We love our Eagles! Although Taydem will be going to kindergarten at Pine Tree (Pirates), she still thinks she's an Eagle like her cousins! My family is just beautiful:
