last night we went to bartlesville to meet the new associate minister and his family. the young families were having a game night, so we thought this would be a great opportunity to meet them. we spent the night there, which was so wonderful because we got to sleep until 7:30 this morning! getting an extra hour of sleep on sunday morning is refreshing!

i was so refreshed that i didn't even take a nap today! that is very unusual for me on a sunday afternoon! instead spencer and i went on an antiquing adventure.
first we headed to dewey, oklahoma "antique capital of oklahoma". only 2 stores were open, so i asked him if he was up for an adventure. he said, "sure. where are we going?"
"kansas!!!"

welcome to kansas
{notice the teeth between our heads...that was one of the treasures spencer found! chattering teeth from 1964!}
i don't think he believed me at first. i knew bartlesville was close to the kansas border, but i didn't know how close. it's actually only about 20-30 minutes. we found this really awesome antique store/flea market in coffeyville, kansas. i wanted all of these things, but i didn't buy any of them!
our evening ended with a family picnic at church. whoever originally purchased the land the church is on was very wise. there is a huge yard area among the trees, and they have a
pavilion, too! it's a perfect place for events like this. one of the elders got all of the ministers up there to sing the "hippo song" for the little kids. it was hysterical!

Looks like you had a great day. Glad to see Spencer found something fun too! I can't wait to visit Dewey on a Saturday, and maybe Coffeyville too! Lisa H. :o)
