Austin

We woke up pretty early and started exploring Austin. Everyone assured me that this would be my favorite place in Texas. It was supposed to resemble Portland. Portland had even stolen their “keep __ weird” slogan. I’m going to be upfront with you when I say… I didn’t really like it. Austin felt congested and filled with hipsters. Traffic was as bad as Los Angeles! 
I did love the rain! we got absolutly soaked!!
 And then we headed to our next destination!!!!

Oklahoma

Our trip was nearing the end and it seemed to fly by.


 

Yay for making it to our next state! 

Our quick visit to Tinker AF Museum

Headed to Shawnee to connect to my heritage a bit! There is always something emotional about being able to connect with our ancestors. 

It was very cool to share it with Arabella since it is her herritage too!

Next we headed to the OKC bombing site.

It was an eye opening experience
We learned a lot of tragic history on our trip
Like the connection of the OKC bombing and Waco
Jesus Wept.
The memorial was very serene.

We also had to visit the Capitol!


And of course we had to visit OCU!



And a few historical sites…

Next we hit a storm <3


After the storm we headed back to Texas!


TBC…
