Adventureland

We have no plans for a family vacation this summer so we decided to take a day trip to Adventureland. Scott and I hadn't been there in 15 years!

 

We started the day off with a ride on the Ferris wheel.

The girls rode the lady bugs twice.

And rode the balloon race twice.

Scott and I are getting old (sigh) even the balloon race messed with our equilibrium.

Evy wanted to do all of the rides by herself. It's already not cool to have Mom along. Luckily, Charlie still likes me and wanted me to sit with her. Admittedly the chuck wagon was a little too tight for my comfort.

Of course, the pink boat...

...and the blue boat.

The only non-kiddie ride we did was the log ride. Neither of the girls were to keen about the idea. Evy did NOT want to get wet. This was the before shot...

...and this is the after shot. Evy and I got drenched on the very first hill. Evy was not happy and said she never wanted to do that ride again.

We spent 5.5 hours at the park and at the end were rushing to fit in more rides. We could have easily spent another 2 hours at the park. A reminder for next time is to take the wagon so both kids can sit down. We only had the umbrella stroller and both kids were fading. I also need to remember to pack a small cooler with sippie cups/cups with lids. The park doesn't give out lids with their drinks and two huge cups of lemonade splashing around was not fun!!!

 

While we were at the park Will went grocery shopping with Aunt Julie. 

And made a new friend. Thanks for watching Will, Aunt Julie!!!
