White Family Adventures

Last weekend we made a quick trip back to Oklahoma to attend and Oklahoma State University Football game and a Coaches vs Cancer Birthday Bash.

A few weeks prior I had received an email from a representative of the organization inviting us to the game and the Birthday Bash event. We decide to go for the weekend and enjoy the festivities. While it was a quick trip home and very busy, we all had fun. Going back to Stillwater for a game and to let the kids experience their first game in Boone Pickens Stadium, has been something we have wanted to do for a while.

Game Day OSU vs KState
Attending the game would be a special experience. We were given tickets to sit in the Coaches vs Cancer Suite. We were able to enjoy the game in the suite with several other families of Children fighting various Cancers. We started out the day with lunch in Broken Arrow before riding up to Stillwater with the family in a limo. My aunt decided to make a fun surprise for Cydney and the kids and for us all to ride up there together.

Enjoying the ride to Stillwater

Once in Stillwater it was unbelievable to see the changes made in the last 5 years since Jared or I have been to a game. We have kept up with the new developments, to see them in place and to see how much the town has changed stunning.
