We love Ingrids...the place where they do Dance 'n' Dine...yeah, that's the one. We didn't hit up the dancing this time, but we did head out there Saturday after Austin got done with work. The food was Delish! The people there are always so nice and this time they gave Sedona a free sugar cookie that was decorated so cute! She looked adorable munching that thing down...
A few years ago, my Dad was in OKC on a Power School trip (I believe) and he took the opportunity to go to the memorial they built for the OKC Bombing that happened in April of 1995. He encouraged me to go see it, saying that it was really neat and worth the time. I really wanted to go, but it isn't really Austin's "thing" so I figured I would go alone before one of Sedona and I's many trips to the Zoo. Joe and Mariam were interested in seeing it, though, and we were pretty close to it when we were at Ingrid's. So, we went on over.
It really is worth the time. It was gorgeous! I couldn't snap a very good picture of the reflecting pool, so I didn't have one to post that would really explain what it looks like. We had a good time learning more about what happened that day and the symbolisms behind the different parts of the memorial. What a great tribute to those victims, rescue workers, and survivors of that horrible crime.
Sedona was well-behaved and actually didn't try to get into the reflecting pool at all...which I was totally shocked by. But we did spend a lot of time chasing her around as she wanted NOTHING to do with her stroller...it was fun for us all, though, and she slept peacefully on the way home ;-)
