My Birthday!

I had the most wonderful birthday yesterday! Scott and I headed out for a day in Oklahoma City. Our adventures included Incredible Pizza (tons of food and fun games), the Oklahoma State Fair (where we watched a baby chick come out of it's egg and I received a little chain-saw carved wooden chair at a logger show), and Dairy Queen on the way home! I also arrived home to 8 birthday phone messages. I truly was the princess for the day!

Look Who's 4!

Sydney, Scott and I had a little family party the night before Sydney's birthday. She opened all the wonderful gifts from family and we had a blast watching all of her reactions to things. She is really growing up!









Sydney and I made cupcakes to bring to her school on her special day. We were shocked with how well behaved the 17 4 year olds were.











On Saturday we had the real party. The pink Care Bear was the theme. This was my first character cake. A good friend did the decorating this time. Isn't it adorable!










Sydney had 4 friends from church over to the house. We decorated these tote bags, played pin the rainbow on the bear and other fun games. The girls were soooooo cute together!












Here's the big breath to blow out the candles!

Sydney's First Day of Pre-K

Sydney went to public school today. Lawton has a Pre-K school with 250 4 & 5 year-olds. She loved it and so did we.

Camping on the Arkansas Border

In spite of the 2 week stretch of 105+ degree weather here in Oklahoma, we decided to seize the opportunity to take a couple of days away. We found a cute little KOA Kabin with A/C near Fort Smith, Arkansas and headed out for some fun. We had a great time and as always, built a great trip around free tourist activities. We even drove through the town where Carrie Underwood was born!

We are expecting another Feitl in February! We received doctor confirmation of our pregnancy as we stepped off the airplane in Hawaii. Here is one of the ways we shared the news.
