Getting Excited

As soon as this boring work day wraps up, the little lady and I are hopping in the car for the drive to Tulsa, and we couldn't be more excited.  It's going to be a long drive, a little over 8 hours of road trip fun, but the last few hours of the drive we pick up my brother who will graciously drive the rest of the way for us.  Hurray for baby showers and hurray for seeing everyone!  It's going to be so fun and we have a lot of good times to pack into this short weekend.  Saturday night I'm really excited to go see my little brother play in the Tulsa Symphony.  I haven't ever gotten to see him play before and he is really a talented musician.  We are also meeting up with my childhood BFF for pizza at the restaurant where S and I met (not the exact one, but one of them), the Hideaway.  If you are ever in Oklahoma, the Hideaway is some seriously great pizza.  And then on Sunday the main event, our first baby shower.  We've got friends, a sister in law, family, childhood BFFs, and even a friend flying in from Colorado who are all going to be at the event.  It's going to be epic.

We have also gotten a lot of great stuff for Jude this week. I wish I had pictures to show you all, maybe next week, but we got all of our letters for our alphabet wall.  They are all so amazing, it's going to be the coolest thing ever.  And also a guy that S works with got us these two little paintings made by a local artist that are really cool and match Jude's room.  Then yesterday we got home and there was the sweetest package from one of our friends who doesn't live in town.  She sent us the cutest hand made dinosaur onesie, along with lots of other cute clothes, these awesome baby books that have art by famous artist, along with some other fun baby toys.  It was like mini Christmas opening up all of the fun stuff she sent.  It is just amazing to see all of the love that our friends and family already have for little Jude, who they haven't even met yet.  It really touches my heart to see it.  He is going to be so happy and loved!

I'll post updates about the baby shower next week, so stay tuned and have a happy weekend yourself!
