While in Midland (yes.... back in August. Don't judge; I've been busy ;)), we visited what is probably my favorite park of all time...
I remember spending countless days at this park as a child and couldn't wait to take the boys there. Too bad it was a thousand degrees... but regardless, we had fun. I was super glad to see that not much had changed since I was there as a child. The same metal climbing toys...
Jack and my nephew Kelley
the same airplane-climbing-thingy (that I'm sure never met safety regulations when I was a kid)
the same tire swings...
and even the same lion water fountain. Gosh... I remember that lion so clearly.
I can't begin to tell you how many chicken fights I had on this thing...
Colt getting splashed with water ;)
I'm pretty sure they replaced a few of the death-trap-metal rip-the-skin-off-your-leg slides with these plastic ones. And for that, we're all grateful :)
So glad Midland has preserved this cute park thru the years!! Fun to see grand kids now enjoying it too... Funniest was seeing Colt wiggle out of the round circle on the plane - yea for Kim coming to the rescue. Xxooxxoo
