A Day in "The City"

Yesterday my family and I went to Oklahoma City (aka: "The City"). In the morning we went to Capitol Day. That's where homeschoolers come from around the state and meet their legislators, bring them cookies, and talk about homeschooling. All y'all who live in Oklahoma should really go next year.

Us and Representative Jason Murphy

Us and Senator Patrick Anderson


After leaving the the Capitol we headed to The Oklahoma History Center. We were enjoying looking at the displays when part of the staff came and told us that we were under a tornado warning and that everybody needed to head to the basement for safety. Well, after staying in that concrete hallway for 20-30 minutes the warning was lifted, they opened the galleries back up and we looked around some more. We were then called back to the basement and stayed there for another 30-45 minutes. We were thankful we had a safe place to stay and that we weren't out on the road. After we got out the second time we left the building to try to decide where to go. We couldn't go back home because that's where the tornado was headed. We hung out in "The City" and then got back to our house at 8:30. Thankfully, our house was not damaged at all. An adventure....
