Summer Fun!!


We have tried these plastic blow up pools in the past, and have not had good luck with them. Last year our yard was torn apart, so we didn't have a pool. I bought this one for the fourth, and guess what.....it had a hole in it the very first day!! But Greg was able to patch it and they have been enjoying it in this super HOT weather!! Yay for summer and cold water!!

Lagoon......


We wanted to take the kids to Lagoon, and decided it would be fun if we went with all the cousins. We figured it would be less crowded if we went on a Sunday. It turned out we were correct, there were no lines and they were able to ride many rides multiple times.





One of their favorite rides was the Scrambler, they would ride it and immediately get back on. I don't know how they did it, I would have been so sick.



another favorite was the Tilt o' Whirl....



Greg and Ashley were the only to brave enough to go on The Rocket....




The Jet Star Two was my favorite ride as a kid, and now Morgan loves it too......



We made a pact before we went that we would all ride Wicked this year. I used to live for roller coasters, but since I had kids, they make me a little nauseous. Not to mention a little nervous. Nervous for myself, but also nervous for my kids. Nervous that they will get hurt or be scared. So the plan was that everyone that was tall enough would go. Turns out that was everyone. All the grown ups went but Morgan, Taylor, Taylee and Brady decided they didn't want to go. This made Jordan a little nervous, but he really wanted to go. He was just barely tall enough, just barely. He had to ride with Greg or I, and he had to have a booster seat. I was nervous myself, but didn't want him to be scared, so I told him it would all be over in 30 seconds. He had a look of sheer terror on his face when we started up, and he screamed along with me on the drop, and then it was just like any other roller coaster. We can say we've been there done that......



The kids always talk Greg into playing stupid games to win them stuffed anilmals that they don't need.....





After he rode Wicked, the Colossus was a piece of cake for Jordan.....



Morgan won this cute turtle...


It was a long day but I think everyone had tons of fun!!! Morgan didn't really care that Jordan was lots braver than her, she said maybe next time she will ride Colossus. Don't get me wrong, she rode lots of stuff like the Wild Mouse, Jet Star, and The white Roller Coaster. She just did not want to go upside down:) The kids had such a good time with thier cousins, so glad we all went together!!
