Sonic: Summer's Best Friend

If you know me, you'll know I'm in love with Sonic. Wait. Maybe you're like my dear little Ellie and ya don't know about Sonic is? Okay, you are SO missing out! Its this awesome drive in place. They have fast food, just like any other joint- cold cokes, slushes, limeades, ice cream and tator tots. But I adore happy hour. Its every afternoon from 2 - 4 and all their drinks and slushes and all that LeGiT stuff are half price. Yeah, that makes a huge difference when cokes are $1.49...or something like that. ;) haha!  And what makes it reeeally amazing is, there's a Sonic less then 12 minutes from my house. So yeah, I'm pretty sure the girls that work there wonder if I'll gain 57 pounds over the summer since I'm probably their best costumer. I just can't not stop there, especially since its right on my way home. But, I don't hardly ever eat food there so that's how I justify it- I just get their drinks. And exercise. ;) You know what makes it even better?! We've made so many amazing memories there. Hanging out at [close to] midnight with friends there after Volleyball and laughing till we cried , going there after church with the fam, making LOTS of frequent stops there with my big sis, chilling on the tables with my brothers and friends, (and being the only girl there- I guess that's what happens when you are so close to your big brothers and hang out with them whenever ya get the chance. And their guy friends come along. Which also happen to be my guy friends. ha!;) .....and, taking my little siblings there on a stinkin' hot saturday afternoon to cool off with icy cold cokes, slushes and limeades. Ain't nothing better! ;)

Oh, by the way- this is the thing you walk up to and tell 'em what you want. In case you were wondering... ;)

 Helpful Tip: if you don't wanna use your straw, you can be a red neck like my brother and just use the lid. Works alright. ;)

Yummo.  

I adore this kid. Needless to say, she loves sonic just about as much as I do!






annnnnnnddd, I think only in Guthrie, OK is there a sonic right in the middle of a hay field (well, pretty much). Gotta love chilling with cold drinks and little sibs while these tractors are hard at work baling hay less then 30 yards from ya. Just for the record,  I love Oklahoma! :)
Oh and did I mention that one night my brothers and another dude ran out in this field and rolled one of the hay bales around and found a dead snake on it? Don't worry, I supervised them. And yeah, we just do crazy stuff like that. ;)

I guess his lid thing  fell through so he asked for a spoon. ;)  And yes. That's my reflection in his sunglasses- I did that on purpose. (not!)

I've trained him well. He's a huge Sonic fan too. I guess we all are? Ha!

Um, yeah. Cool, Refreshing, Icy, Deep-Dish Deliciousness.




So THIS is one thing I looooooooove about being a big sis- getting to take little bro's and sisters with me to all kinds of fun places and making tons of special memories. To Sonic. To the snow-cone joint. To walmart. To movies.
Yeah, I just love all the people in my life. I'm preeeeetty blessed.


....annnnd, blessed with a Sonic nearby too. ;)
