A Weekend In OK

We spent last weekend visiting my friend Brook's hometown of Fairview, Oklahoma. We had a very relaxing weekend and it was really nice to meet all of Brook's family. Friday we drove the five hour drive up to Fairview. Of course we made a stop at Cracker Barrel for dinner because what's a roadtrip without a stop there?When we got there we just chatted a while and headed to bed. Saturday was a blast! We spent the day on the Ewbank family farm. They own acres upon acres of oklahoma country and it was just beautiful. You could see for miles and miles. Us girls had alot of fun driving around in the Ranger.Justin took the four wheeler out and I barely saw him all day unless I was out on the Ranger;) He had a great time! Brook's mom made Cheeseburgers for lunch and fajitas for dinner. We ate well in Oklahoma, I cannot say I was ever hungry there!Sunday we went to Fresh Start Church, a church Brook's dad had started. It's a small, but very neat church. We heard a very powerful sermon while we were there. Every Sunday this church has a potluck fellowship after church, so of course we stayed for lunch. It was really neat to see churches still doing things like that on Sundays. We then left Fairview and headed towards Oklahoma City. We spent the afternoon there. The first thing did was visit the Oklahoma City bombing Memorial. It was such a beautiful memorial. We also went to Bricktown while we were there. This is kind of a mini version of the San Antonio River Walk, complete with the river ferry and all. We road the river ferry around Bricktown. It was great weather for the ride. We ate dinner at a really neat Mexican resturant before heading back to Fort Worth. I can't wait for our next weekend getaway:) ~Amy
