Uncle Nathan



This little montage of my brother Nathan visiting Oklahoma is way overdue. I was thrilled to get the email telling me he'd be coming to our house this summer. I know he had his reservations about Oklahoma....but I think by the end of the trip we squeaked out a small, but cozy spot in his heart for the state.
I loved showing him around. And boy did we pack a lot of punch for those days he was here. I took Nathan to the amazing Aquarium in Jenks, gave him a tour of the Philbrook Museum, went Antique shopping, took him to see the outdoor production of "Oklahoma" (which he loved) went rafting on the Illinois River, played games, took in a movie or two, went bowling, and ate some good Mexican food. But what I probably loved the most was our late night talks and watching Nathan play with my kids.
Sigh....what would life be without family?
Anyway, this is for you Nathan. We sure love you!!
Hurry back now ya hear?



P.S. Please try and ignore the fact that the pictures are pixelated....trust me I am embarrassed. No, it is not a reflection of the real pictures I just seem to be dealing with a lot of technical issues as of late....hence the lack of posts. Well, there's also the time thing. But I do love my readers...I have not forgotten you. I've got more coming k?

Your creative video of your family evokes so many wonderful feelings in my heart. I am so glad Uncle Larry and I have had some wonderful memories together with you and yours. It just so happens the brightest threads in our tapestry of life were woven while spending time with the Ball family.
