Lagoon


This was a "Lagoon" weekend. We rode as many rides as we could on Saturday, Emma refused to ride any of the rollercoasters. She finally agreed to let me take her on the Wild Mouse then she let Burns take her on the Fire Dragon and the Wicked. Emma then convinced Ethan the Wicked was 'wicked fun' and Sunday morning all four of us were flying wicked fast. The Wicked is now Emma and Ethan's favorite ride along with The Bat, The Spider, Jetstar 2 and anything else that is like a rollercoaster! It was so much fun that we will be bouncing back to Lagoon next weekend!!!!

Silverwood Theme Park

In June we met Grandma and Grandpa Atwood at Silverwood Theme Park near Sandpoint, Idaho. We rode rides and spent some time at the waterpark before sending Emma and Ethan off with their Dad for the summer. The best ride at the park was the Tremors Rollercoaster and I have the picture to prove it!

Walt Disneyworld Orlando



In February we treated the kids to a surpise trip to Disneyworld. We spend 7 days cramming all the rides and shows in we could. The Tower of Terror, Rockin' Rollercoaster, and Space Mountain were just a few of their favorite rides. The highlight was having Emma and Ethan chosen from the crowd to recieve a LARGE cookie from the Main Street Bakery. The Lion King Parade in Animal Kindom was fantastic! We loved the Cirque du Soleil! Most impressive were the fireworks over Cinderlla's Castle!. Burns and I were sad when we had to return our rental car...a bright red, convertible Ford Mustang.
