2 weeks before Kristi's wedding we got together for a day of fun!
Our first stop was at the Tulsa Glass Blowing School.
We got the choice to make a flower or a paper weight.
First our instructor showed us how to do it.
Putting the glass mold into the fire.
Using the table to start the molding process
Dipping the glass into the colors you chose to use
Going back into the fire
Adding in more color
Molding of the paper weight
Molding of the flower
Some final shaping
Creating the stem
Final squeeze to separate the glass from the rod
Not as easy as it looks to make. Good thing we had help so our finished product actually looked like what it was suppose to be.
Using fire to soften the cut edges.
Kristi demonstrating a flower and paper weight since ours wouldn't be ready for a couple days.
It was a great activity and we had a lot of fun doing it!
Next up was dinner at The Melting Pot. None of us had ever been there so it was a new experience. We did cheese fondue, salad, and chocolate fondue. It was all delicious!!
We finished the evening with bowling at Andy B's.
Kelsey reserved the VIP bowling lanes for us to bowl on.
It was different getting to bowl without my kids. I actually bowled. My score was not anything to brag about but it was fun. On the 3rd game we decided to bowl left handed. That was interesting. If anyone around us looked at our projected scores (aka gutter balls) they probably wondered what we were doing on the VIP lanes. It was a great day celebrating with the Bride To Be!
