Oklahoma, where the wind comes sweepin' down the plain

Last night we got back from a five day trip to Tulsa to visit Ruby's grandparents, great-grandparents, aunts, uncles, and many friends. Ruby had a blast and was on her best behavior for everyone, showing off her newly discovered soundless laugh (imagine hyperventilating with a smile on her face). We got to swim in the pool, eat great food, celebrate Great-Grandpa Lewis' 85th birthday, and, for the parents, sleep a little bit longer than usual.

Many, many thanks to my parents for hosting Emilia, Ruby, myself, Stella, Stanley, Lauren, and Jacob. We love y'all.

A few pictures for y'all to enjoy:

The calls of "speech! speech!" did not go unanswered.

I know this is a family-friendly blog for Ruby ... but seriously - how hot is my wife?

Seeing the pictures makes me miss the whole Edmonson/Ross family! Hope you all had a wonderful 4th. I thought of Louie's homemade vanilla ice cream all day Saturday! Ruby gets cuter and cuter ever time I see pictures!
