Lagoon...its what fun is! (or isn't)

I am still slightly baffled sometimes that people pay gobs of money to stand in line with rude people in the hot sun with tired kids to ride a ride for a minute. Ok, Ok that wasnt really our story this time. But its true that some people look that miserable and I think...you pay money for this?!

Our trip was actually really fun! We got there right at opening time and went straight for Rattle Snake Rapids! (I should insert here that we left Bri with a friend who has a day care which I was so grateful for!)

We all got soaked and walked around in squishy shoes the rest of the day. The line was so short we went several times back to back. The line on that one is usually so long we for go that one so I was determined to get on it this time.

 Mollie rode most of the rides but was actually pretty content to hang out with me if there was a ride she wasnt too sure about. She had some anxiety for the first part of the day but when she realized that the rides were fun AND scary (not just scary) she calmed down a bit. Her favorite ride of the day? A fast rollercoaster called Bombora...Go figure :)

 This picture sums up most of the day...Mollie was a bit whiney from her anxiety and Carter couldn't contain his excitement. In this picture as we were boarding the train we couldnt find mollie. Come to find out Chad went back and found her leg caught in a gate and she was freaking out! But Dad of course came to the rescue.

 This egg drop ride scared me to death but the kids sure loved it.

 And of course Carter had to ride the bumper cars a hundred times. Mollie wouldnt be caught dead in one!

 Her ride of choice was the Merry go Round. She absolutely loved it and her sparkly horse and smiled the cutest smile the whole way around

 Dad was even a good sport and hopped on a frog.

 Spinning rides are not my cup of tea (haha) so while the kids went on the spinning tea cups I sat back and drank a diet coke and tried to dry out my wet socks and shoes.

 Carter was a good brother and helped his sister get on and off of rides and held her hand. So sweet and cute!

 Here are the tired parents. Chad got called into work the night before we left so he was pretty tired. But we had a good fun day and the kids were nice and exhausted for bed time. So were we!
