"Meet the Sooners" Day

The first morning we were in Oklahoma, OU had a "Meet the Sooners" Football Team Day.  Since Daddy has brainwashed Brock into being an OU fan, they went out to meet them. 

Brock said he really liked the assistant coaches.  When I asked him why, he said because they talked to him about Star Wars.  (He was wearing a Star Wars shirt.)

Brock wanted to take some pictures, so he scripted a photo shoot.  Papa throws the ball...

There is a family fun center that the boys loved.  They had miniature golf, go carts, bumper boats, bumper cars, rock wall climbing, arcades, etc.  Here is Brock tee-ing off.

 Brock on the go carts.  He loved these things and rode them over and over and over.  I think one reason was that, for the first time, he was tall enough to drive all by himself!

This place was awesome!!!  If you ever go to OK City, you HAVE to go here.  We spent almost the entire day here and could've stayed longer.  It was the neatest place we've ever taken the boys...and they loved it as much as Steve and I.

This was the coolest treehouse ever.  It had two parts to it.  On the right side was a rope and pulley with a bucket attached that someone on the bottom could fill with foam balls, then the people at the top could pull it up, there was a slide from the top, brainteasers.  There was also a pulley from the right side to the left side.  It was really cool and the boys loved playing in it.

Ryan on a Segway...obviously enjoying himself!

 There was also a place where kids could go do different hands-on cerebral activities.  One side was for kids up to 7 years old, the other was for 7+.  The younger side had things like a water table where you could put different boards and make dams or cause the water to go a different route by moving the boards around.  The older side had a lot of brain teasers.  We all enjoyed trying to solve the brain teaser puzzles.

 Ryan enjoyed the "fire station" with a fireman's pole that he could slide down.  He also showed me that he could shimmy all the way up the pole...pretty strong for a 4-year old!
