A couple of weeks before our Oklahoma trip, my dear friend Lindsey called to say she would do almost anything to get to see us and of course we wanted to see them too! So we worked out a plan for us to meet up in Oklahoma when Micah and I were on our way back to Houston. This meant Micah and I would drive a little bit out of our way on the way home but Brooks and Lindsey would drive 8 hours in one day to hang out for a couple of hours. That will make a person feel loved!
As the time got closer, we decided to head our super early so that we could make a couple of other stops before meeting the Perry's to see other friends. However, that morning we woke up super early, got in our car that was in the garage and opened the garage door to this:
By the time we made it to Tulsa, there were signs saying the highway we had planned to take across Oklahoma was closed so we decided on a different route. The extra time we thought we had for visiting other friends was taken up by having to drive super slow and careful through the snow. Luckily we left that early or we would have been really late meeting up with the Perry's.
At last we made it! We had decided to meet up at a McDonald's since we figured it would give us the best chance to catch up and keep the kids entertained. It ended up being the perfect place. This McD's had a big playground for the older kids but also a little separate area for Jacob. We had a great time hanging out. It was so good to see our friends again!
Thanks to the Perry family for being willing to drive to see us even if only for a few hours! We love y'all!
