My supervisor invited me to a jewelry and home decor party in Edmond, OK. Considering I don't have a home and I don't wear much jewelry, I just snacked and walked around. haha However, it was fun seeing her outside of the work day and to meet her friends. Afterwards, we went to a place called Pop's. It's a convenient store that is also a restaurant and they are known for all of their hundreds of soda pop options. Here is the light-up statue out front. Definitely glad I got this cultural experience.

We went to go see Captain America in 3-D

Captain Brianna

Captain Jessi

At the Riverwalk in OKC outside of Balero's Tapas Restaurant.

Jessi, being the professional tapas eater, ordered these lovely appetizers for us. They were very yummy! We had calamari, potatoes, pork, fried cream cheese and goat cheese, and dates covered in bacon.

Jessi came up to Norman to visit me! I met her at Sonic since it is so hot these days and we caught up.

Then, she surprised me with a cooler full of home-cooked food including ribs, carrots, mashed potatoes, and rolls from her parent's kitchen! It was so nice to have a home-cooked meal.

Then, we were watching "Romancing the Stone" on my computer when the power went out for the second time this week. ugh...

So, we decided to go get Passionberri frozen yogurt to cool down and walk around campus corner to pass the time. :)

It turned back on after an hour and a half, but we had already finished the movie on her iphone haha.

I was riding my bike and happened upon the library entrance. It looks a little different than the ACU library and way different than the library at TWU. I've loved riding my bike around these older areas of the campus. They even have some labyrinth bushes that are fun to ride around in.

This guy was running around campus in a head-to-toe red spandex outfit. You couldn't even see his face! We were stopped at a stop light and had our windows down. Apparently we laughed a little too loud, because he stopped and posed for a picture for us. I'm hoping this is some sort of fraternity activity for freshmen who are moving in this week. haha

Mary Kay and Larry were in town for a wedding this weekend and made time to take me out for dinner! I felt so special! ;) We ate at Toby Keith's I Love This Bar and Grill. It was pretty wonderful, but the best part was visiting with dear friends. The restaurant finally kicked us out after 2 1/2 hours...oops haha...apparently there was a private party and we weren't invited.

We were in an area of Oklahoma City known as Bricktown and it was right on the riverwalk that runs through downtown. So, we kept seeing water taxis drive by. It was also right next to the Bass Pro Shop which is right on the water too. Apparently Toby Keith is from Moore, OK, which is a suburb of OKC.

We got to catch up on each others' lives and exchange fun stories. Just love these two and felt so blessed! What a great way to start my weekend.
