Trip to Oklahoma

We just got back from a quick trip to Oklahoma to visit Grandma Kelly. The kids were indulged with good quality grandma time! The weather was incredibly hot, like 102-106 by noon each day, so we spent time trying to come up with some various activities to keep us cool.

 Playing on Grandma Kelly's Harley while cleaning out the garage one morning.  Not an especially  'cool' activity, but thinking about the breeze while cruising on a motorcycle helped.   

 Playing at the park in Marlow one morning before it got too hot.  It was probably already 95 degrees! 

 Playing with Aunt Jennifer's Bryer horse collection and old dolls was especially fun for Lilly.  She would play with those dolls and horses for long periods of time.  Well, at least until her little brother would find her and destroy her scenes in pure Godzilla fashion. 

 First thing in the morning the kids would head outside to the back yard and play in the birdbath.  It was a nice way to cool off, splash around, and have some fun. 

 Davis watering the plants with rainwater collected in large jugs by the side of the house.  The kids felt very useful!

 Davis and Lilly would take the pebbles out of the birdbath and arrange them in different patterns on the patio table.  Another fun and cool activity.
