So long, Tulsa

Making Mischief

Happy Sunday from thunder booming Tulsa! We are excited that this is our last week in Oklahoma. The weather is heating up along with the humidity, but days like today help make it possible (tons of rain and cooler temp). This week we continued to sell off things on Craigslist, pack up books, and tighten up our moving plans. We enjoyed swimming yesterday with a family in the ward, and Hinckley did really well for his first time! I also walked into the water with my wallet in my pocket . . . but everything was salvaged other than the wallet itself - which is ok since I think it is the same wallet I've had since going to Mexico nearly 10 years ago. 

Hinckley is getting yet another tooth, but he is doing really well. He loves trying to escape when his diaper is being changed, and laughs uncontrollably when I do "hunk-a-chaw, hunk-a-chaw, hunk-a-chaw, hunk!" and grab him. Pretty cute. Kassie blitzed through The Book Thief and then we watched the movie. She really enjoyed the book and was having a hard time putting it down! I've been working slowly but surely on an electronic cookbook for our family, you can submit recipes if you have any good ones! The website is called http://williamsecookbook.weebly.com/ and is just an upgraded version from our previous Google Site. It still has lots of work to be done but it will be a good resource in the future.

The Black Bean Boss

My business venture is going well as we have about 7 projects in the works for June and July. My sister Lucy talked to a friend from school who will be doing the music for some of these films over the summer. Here is our current website and I am open to your thoughts and advice - or just general impressions on what seems to work and what isn't as helpful.

Kassie's Mom will be here mid-week to help prepare for the move and clean the apartment (though Kas keeps it so clean I am not sure what can be cleaned!). They will leave Friday and I will come on Saturday after the truck is packed. We are excited and hoping this is the last time we have to move in a while (that is what we say every 6-12 months).

Our time here in Tulsa has been transformative to say the least. My 4 months with TFA in connection with my 4 months doing professional video work at Community Care College have taught both of us more about ourselves, our dreams, and working together. We are grateful for this time, and look forward to what is ahead. Can't say we will miss this apartment, but there are a few people and a few restaurants we will never forget!
