God's Country

At least that's what my P's call it. I don't completely agree with them, considering I moved to Texas to get away from the cold winters and crazy tornado's. But, I must say we love to visit to the Okies we love! We got to stay for nearly two weeks and had a great time!
On our first night in OK we had dinner at my Sister and Bro in law's in Tulsa. Lane loved their rock fountain by the front door. He could have played on that rock all night!
The next morning my Mom pulled out some old things that were in a trunk that I "inherited". Meaning, my P's didn't have a place for it anymore so I'm the lucky one that got it. Anyway, we found an old tu-tu I had, and I had to try it on Lane. Looks like he did not enjoy it!
On a happier note, he did love the old rocking chair I had when I was a little girl. He rocked and rocked in it.
We discovered Oklahoma has shopping charts with steering wheels in the front. Lane did not let go of that wheel the whole time we shopped.
He feel in love with Porter peaches. Yum!
One evening Sarah and Tyler (sis and b-i-l) came for dinner. We had delicious ribs my Dad smoked all day.
Lane was one happy dude
covered in barbecue sauce.
Lane got to experience an afternoon nap out in a hammock. We put him in it and he was out.
We also went to Kiddie Park. It's an amusement park for kids that I grew up going to. We were all so excited to go, Lane's big Sis Rylee and her family even joined us to make an event of it.
Rylee and Lane got to sit together on some of the rides and Lane did great having his big sis with him.
He checked out himself as a cone head.
Rode the carousel with Rylee and her Mom, and Grammy.And had a fit on the last ride of the night. The spinning swings were not for him!
Lane loved being in OK to hang out with Grammy, Grampy and their besties, Nina Ruth and Pa Pa Bob.
Grammy and Grampy got Lane a sprinkler to play in. He decided keeping his distance was best.
One day we drove to Kansas to see Lane's Great Grandma. Aren't they cute together!
We all went to lunch and Lane provided the entertainment. He showed off his eating ice off the table trick.
We celebrated Grampy's birthday with a family dinner.
Lane got tons of attention from Grammy and Nina Ruth
and Aunt Sarah and Uncle Tyler.

We had so much fun we hated to leave, thanks for everything Okies, we love you!!!
