Stillwater Stay

We rolled into Oklahoma in our modern day Conestoga wagon with our first stop being Stillwater.  Why Stillwater?  The first and most important reason...Stacey's Aunt Linda & Uncle Dean live here.  They are truly an inspirational couple and folks to look up to.  They would never agree with me, which makes them all the more inspirational in my book! Team Breitmann loves you, Aunt Linda & Uncle Dean!!
The second reason for staying in Stillwater is OSU.  As an Ohio native, notice I did not say The OSU.  Here it stands for Oklahoma State University, the home of the Cowboys.  Stacey is a proud graduate and Cowgirl.  Stacey's family is truly an OSU family.  As a matter of fact, Aunt Linda & Uncle Dean's son Daniel is married to Dr. Bobbie Kay Lewis, a professor of Strategic Communications at OSU.  She is a gem of a person and another huge inspiration.  We had not met her before and from the first moment we felt like we had known her for years!  No wonder her students had nominated her for and she was selected as the Faculty Advisor of the Year for the entire nation!  Team Breitmann enjoyed our time here in the heart of America! Next stop Oklahoma City!

Orange and Black are the colors 'round these parts!  Don't come here wearing red that's for sure!

Stacey poses in front of her first residence hall with Hailey and Heidi. She took us all around campus.  It was a treat to have her share her walk down memory lane with us!  We love our Cowgirl!
