Ardmore Visit - Sunday March 13 to Thursday March 17

Max and I went on a little adventure together to Ardmore, OK.  It was time for us to make a trip to see Mimi, Papa, Uncle Craig, and Great Grandpa.  We decided to fly instead of drive (flying takes 45 minutes and driving is 6 hours), and this was going to be Max's very first time to fly on a plane.  I was a little nervous about the idea because I for one am not a fan of flying, but Max did great.  I gave him the window seat and he just stared out the window.  We did thankfully pack the Ipad so Max could watch a little bit of a movie.  I am so proud of little man for being so good on the plane!




When we arrived in Dallas my mom was waiting for us in the baggage claim area.  As soon as Max saw his Mimi he took off running for her.  It was so cute to watch.


As soon as we arrived in Ardmore Mimi had golf clubs waiting for Max, and you guessed it, he starting playing golf immediately.  Then, Uncle Craig came over to say hi before he went to the skate park.  We told Max about the park and he really wanted to go see Uncle Craig skate.  Max had a great time skating with Craig and watching him do some tricks.

We got back to the house and Max went right back to playing golf.  I was able to snap this quick picture of him and Papa.


Monday, Grandpa came to visit Max from Oklahoma City.  Max hasn't seen his Grandpa since his second birthday so he was very excited to hear that he was coming.  Plus, he brought Christmas presents!  Max got a whole new set of tools and even power tools!  Little man was in heaven all day.  He played tools with grandpa and of course GOLF.  Thanks for coming to visit us Grandpa...we missed you!


Tuesday, we took Max to the train station to see if we could catch one driving by.  To our surprise we did get to see a train.  Unfortunately, it made such a loud noise that it scared Max and he wanted to leave immediately.  So we took him to the park thinking it might cheer him up but it didn't.  He was just having one of those days.


Wednesday, we took Max GW's Exotic Animal Park (http://www.gwpark.org/) in Wynnewood, OK.  If you live in Oklahoma and you haven't been to this place you should definitely check it out.  Much better than a zoo.  We got to see all kinds of animals at pretty close range.  As we were waiting for our tour of the back part of the park Max made a new friend, Addison.  Since they got along so well we all decided that we should just join forces and do a tour together.  Max and Addison had a great time walking around together looking at the animals.  At the end of our tour we were able to spend a little time with a 6 week old tiger cub.  Pretty much the coolest thing ever.  Max got to play with the tiger on the ground and even let the tiger climb on him.  So glad I was able to get a few pictures before our guide took the tiger off Max.  We all had such a great time!

Thurday, we had to pack up our things and head back to Dallas to catch our plane to Little Rock.  We had such a great time!  Thanks for having us Mimi and Papa!  See you next time!
