Themepark!

 We had a wonderful time at our annual themepark day! N got to come with us...his first time there! And the O girls got to join us again. 

 

 

  Everyone was excited and headed straight for the roller coasters!

 

 

Lou and I did too...just the one in kiddie land. :) 

 

 

I don't know what I'm going to do once she graduates from kiddie land! Maybe I'll just stay home. :P Even the kiddie coaster makes me nauseous, WITH Dramamine on board! She did the train. 

 

And drove me around in an antique car, and I went with her on the Ferris Wheel! I had never been on one before but it didn't make me sick at all so I was happy. 

 

 

The Froggy ride is always one of her favorites. 

 

 

Although it looked like it was making her stomach drop a lot more than it used to! She keeps clutching at her stomach in this video. 

 

 

After a while we met up with the others.   

 

 

And they went on some of the rides with us. I was happy to relinquish my seat to A. :)

 

 

 

We found J and saw a lot of other people from camp running around including Peaches cabin leader. At this point T and the big kids went over to the waterpark side. 

 

 

The youngest three and I did the antique cars again.  

 

 

And they rode all the rides Lou had already done. 

 

 

We also did the Tilt n' Whirl, the carousel, and visited the candy shop. I didn't get any pictures, but we went to a show for the first time! They have a magic show at different times of the day, but this was the first year in a long time I'd seen that the parrot show was back. 

 

A, E, and D and I went to that and it was so neat! They had birds of all sizes, little tiny ones, up to ones that head-to-tail-feathers were 3 feet long! They had a bunch of neat tricks they could do and we really enjoyed it! Then it was time for an ice cream break! 

 

 

The rest made it back from the water park. 

 

 

And then we headed back over to coaster alley where the older kids all rode some of the crazier rides like this giant drop one!  

 

 

And this one which spins around while the entire thing goes back and forth like a pendulum until it finally goes over center and then around a few times. Last year I remember hearing on the news that there was a perfectly balanced set of people and they ended up getting stuck in this position for over three minutes before it finally fell back down! Boo is dead center on the white arm with N and Peanut on either side. She says this is her favorite ride and N said it ended up being his favorite too!  

 

We had a wonderful day and made it home exhausted but happy! 

 

 

See you next year roller coasters!
