A perfect spring day for my family of three consists of being somewhere outdoors where my 18-month-old daughter can play and explore. The adventure is followed by a nap, then a meal somewhere with an outside seating area. Our day revolves around our daughter’s nap schedule, so our outings are usually around Oklahoma City and within 20 to 30 minutes from home. The perfect day begins after breakfast when we drive a short distance to Bluff Creek Trail. We love strolling the trail while enjoying the scenic view, and we often run into wildlife here. Many times we see a family of deer crossing the trail to find food or a single deer zipping through, then quickly disappearing into the woods. After our walk, we head home for lunch then nap time. After our little one is well rested, we head out for an early dinner. We like visiting Chisholm Creek where there is a nice play area for kids, many restaurants and fabulous dessert options. Chicken Foot’s outdoor seating area is next to the waterfront, and steps away from the patio, there is turf-covered space for playing cornhole. For dessert, Dominico has great ice cream and coffee. We are thankful our city has grown so much, providing a variety of adventures without having to drive too far. We can be close to nature and enjoy a city vibe all in one day. Le Tran and husband Van, both nurse practitioners, love to eat out and explore parks and outdoor spaces with their young daughter Evelyn.
