Canoes & Guns

Saturday & Sunday we headed off to the lake with our Life Group. The Freeman’s invited our group to spend the weekend at Lindsey’s grandparents cabin at Cedar Crest Country Club on Spring Creek Lake. It is a private lake and is amazing!

We visited for a weekend this past spring so we were expecting a great time, but it was even better than we hoped. We arrived Saturday morning about 10:15a and started with a nice walk along the lake. It was chilly and breezy but overall a gorgeous fall day. After a great lunch of homemade chili we headed out on quick fishing trip. I didn’t catch a darn thing, but several people had some luck. Having a contingent of OU fans on the trip along with one A&M fan we had to head back to the cabin and watch the Sooners demolish the Aggies. With darkness surrounding us by the time the OU game was over we stayed in for the night and enjoyed homemade chicken noodle soup, football and a crackling fire. I actually fell asleep in the recliner next to the fireplace about 8:45p!

Sunday morning we woke up fairly early and I made breakfast for everyone including chocolate raspberry pancakes. Thanks to Target for putting that mix together, cause it was yummy! With only a few hours remaining before heading back home we jumped in the canoes and took a couple of laps around the lake. I tried to fish from the canoe but couldn’t get a bite and then I lost the tip of my pole. Arrgh. Following the workout in the canoes we headed over to a field and shot skeet. I even got Jenny to shoot a shotgun! For some reason we failed to take any pictures until we pulled the guns out. So, here you go:

OU Vs Kansas 2008

Today we had the opportunity to entertain one of Josh’s clients in the bank’s suite at the OU vs Kansas football game. Josh’s client is a big KU fan and was thrilled to see his Jayhawks play. We had a great time during the game even if the suite is a little removed from all the revelry of football.

Near the end of the game Jordan came over and joined us in the suite then took us on a tour of the stadium. We toured the new multi-million dollar SoonerVision HD control room. They are doing a lot of remodeling for SoonerVision and adding new suites and it is going to be awesome when it is done. We then took the elevator up to the top of the press box and what a view of the game. He also showed us the old control room and the studio where they shoot the Bob Stoops show. While on the set of the Bob Stoops show we interrupted the Kansas post-game presser. Oops!
