Oklahoma Trip

We just returned from a nice long weekend in Oklahoma visiting Grandaddy, Mimi, and Reid.  It was a trip that was long overdue! We headed out Thursday afternoon and got back Sunday evening.  The worst part of the trip was the drive, I just don't like doing road trips especially with a toddler.

When we go to Oklahoma, I can almost guarantee 2 things for the trip.  The first thing is, Matt will get a speeding ticket (I think Connor and I are bad luck).  The second thing is, it will be extremely windy! (Although I hear it isn't ALWAYS like that. . .) Our trip consisted of family time, checking out the cows, and more family time.  I'm not sure who was more giddy, Connor or Grandaddy and Mimi!


It didn't take long for Connor to find Mimi's new toy

Mimi made sure he was buckled up, especially since Matt was driving!

So serious

Best Friends



Miss Gilley was very intrigued by Connor


Apparently cows are very unsure of little people and think they are coyotes, you learn something new everyday



This kid adds more gray hairs to my head everyday

So big


He would be happier if I would let him roll around in the dirt


Rocks are going to be the new thing that gets him in trouble very quickly


***FLASHBACK***
This is Connor when he was 4 months old on his first trip to Oklahoma.  My oh my, time sure has flown by!


Lawn mower rides with Grandaddy

I don't think his smile could be any bigger!

Buckled up and ready for another ride

Waving and shouting "Bye Mom"

Connor's new friend for the weekend, Rowdy

"Riley" as Connor called him

Then we had an Easter egg hunt


The first egg, he thought he had won the jackpot! 


Couldn't wait to find all the eggs



Seeing how it was so windy, it seemed fitting to fly a kite

I promise I was there, even though I wasn't in a single picture! We had a wonderful time and we definitely need to go back sooner rather than later.  Thanks Mimi and Grandaddy for a wonderful weekend, we love you.
