Fun in downtown Chicago!!

The Bean at Millenium Park!!

We went skating ☺️

Today.....

Maddy had her day one of the college prep program.  Testing this morning on many elements of a middle hitter.  Then had educational seminars for the afternoon on college recruiting.  

Then we watched the NCAA Division 1 national championship match.  It was an awesome game!!!

Penn State won the title of national Champions!!!!! 

Toured the OKC bombing memorial.

More exploring in OKC!

This morning we decided to SLEEP IN!  It was a exciting late night yesterday!  What a game! Can't wait to watch the final game tomorrow (Utah VS Penn State).  

Today, after sleeping in, we did more exploring of Oklahoma City.  We walked to the Majestic Gardens.  This place was cool!  With it all decorated for Christmas. Ice skating, little portable shops, and a beautiful indoor garden.

Can't wait to back here Sunday night when it is all lit up for Christmas!

Tonight Maddy has orientation for her volleyball activities starting tomorrow.

At the semifinals!!!

I

View from the third level up!☺️

We were in the third level...nosebleed seats!  You could see, but it was pretty distant.  Then it happened.... Maddy had entered a sweepstakes on twitter (social media).  Right before the game started a lady was escorted up to our nosebleed section....WE WON!! We left the nosebleed section, and walked all the way down to the 5th row middle court.  We saw all the action!!   It was an awesome experience for us both!

The view just got better!!

Go Penn State!!

BYU WON, and Penn State won!  Now we wait until Saturday for finals.

The Girls are in OKC!!!

We had a great trip down to OKC!  First we got on this small 40 seater plane.  Maddy's head hit the sealing of the plane, as well as the exit sign 😂. Very smooth flight though.  Then we were picked up at the airport by Nathan, our towncar driver.  He was so sweet!!!!  Alt of southern hospitality ☺️. 

This morning we took a walk downtown. Breakfast at Starbucks....

Then we spotted the Bass Shop...and HAD to check it out.  Super cool! Bigger than Cabela's!

Mike and Scott would have LOVED this place!!!  Then we walked the river walk through bricktown.  Was a lot of fun!  Weather is cool 50° and drizzly.  

Now back to our room for alittle rest before tonight's activities😴
