Winston Churchill once said, "The farther backward you can look, the farther forward you will see."

 So we had plans to go to Tulsa to visit some friends Friday night, but they cancelled.  We already had plans to have lunch with our parents on Saturday, so we decided to go and find something to get into while we were in town.

We found the Scotfest!!!

We had a great time and decided we would definitely go again next year, and go for the full three days!  We also got to see a band who wears kilts, beats on drums, and plays bagpipes.... How could you not enjoy that??  Seriously though, they were pretty awesome!   Their name is Wicked Tinkers and if you're into that kind of thing, you should definitely check them out!

Here's a video of them from Saturday:

They had caber tossing which was pretty amazing to watch and some really talented young ladies doing a jig:

And more awesomeness about the Scots, here is the Harkness Tartan:

And our family crest:

Just for fun:
My weekly shopping trip, I bought $55.88 of food and household items, but after their discount: Spent $41.40 out of pocket.  That may not be huge to you but when most of that was stuff that coupons never come out for, it was still a pretty good deal!
