Oklahoma Parks

With children, it seems you (and they) are always on the lookout for parks. Grandma had a couple good ones in mind so one day we went to Grandma Ann and Patsy's school and tried out the equipment there. Another day we went to this park near Johnie and Nancy's.

Izzie with her shoes off. If she changes clothes as much as a teenager as she does now we are never going to get anywhere on time. Around the house these days she is constantly taking clothes off and putting new ones on. On the plus side she can almost dress herself - she always gets her Crocs on the proper feet, and 90% of the time she can get her underwear on and off without assistance. (At first she kept putting both her feet into one hole and getting very frustrated when she couldn't pull them up!)

Izzie in the plastic bubble.

Ben conquering the monkey bars. Why is it that these things are so scary now? They weren't that scary when I was the one climbing all over them!

After some hard playing Izzie enjoys a snuggle with Grandma.

Yes, kids love parks--a chance to run and play. You have some great pictures. We are beginning to get some "fall like" weather so getting out is more pleasant now.
