This, That, and More Stuff

Just an update since I haven't posted in a while . . .

I'm 32 now. Brooke is 3 now. We had a party that was off the hook for Brooke! Hello Kitty style. She had fun. Heather's parents stayed late after the party and watched Brooke so we went and saw The Departed. It was GREAT! Really cool story, great acting, violence... another classic Scorsese movie.

We are potty training Brooke now. We started 2 weeks ago and we've had several days already with no accidents. Obviously we're still doing diapers when she sleeps, but first thing in the morning we get up and go and most days she tells us every time she needs to go. The first day or two she didn't quite get it but I think she's picking up now. She called me one day early and work and it went like this . . .

Me; "This is Jason"
[pause]
Me: "Hello?"
Brooke : I WENT POOPOO IN THE POTTY

Pretty funny!

We have our Nintendo Wii on preorder and will be picking it up in a couple of weeks when it's released. No PS3 for us. We wanted to get one to EBay but no luck, but we're still happy to get a Wii for us to actually play.

OBA was this past weekend in Edmond. My friends Ceth and Amy were in town for it so we hooked up with them and ate dinner Saturday night. In talking with them it sounds like Union is pretty terrible these days which stinks. Broken Arrow is doing well but from what they say basically all the other bands in the state are lousy. Ceth says most kids don't care about marching band. I don't understand why they even join if they don't want to succeed at it.

We went to the OU v. Colorado football game last weekend. My aunt had suite tickets and took us along. It's definitely an experience! It's posh. Each suite has like 3 or 4 rows of seats that are roomy and comfortable. There is a full kitchen area in each suite and personal host for each suite that is there to take care of you. Outside the suites there are lounge areas with couches and tv's and big buffet lines with all sorts of good food: burgers, chili, brisket, sandwiches, wings, etc. In the room they have more wedding appetizer stuff... fruit, cheese, crackers, more wings, cake, pastries, etc. Then anything you could want to drink... beer, soda, wine, on and on. It was cool and hopefully I get to go again.

Work is good.

Guess that's it. Best line I can think of from Brooke :

'When I get bigger I can go to Wal-Mart by myself. Then when you guys get bigger you can go with me'.
