Lagoon Day

Work Lagoon day finally arrived! The kids have been looking forward to going to Lagoon for months! Thanks to a great company (RPT) we were able to enjoy such a fun day with the monkies. Also a big thanks to my parents who so kindly agreed to watch Ben at home so we could enjoy the park baby free! It was awesome!! Even though all day I was nervous I had left him in the car, or stranded while we were on a ride..so besides the fear of leaving the kid somewhere, we had a great time! Oh, and not to mention we literally melted away! It was over 100 degrees and we were TOASTY hot ALL DAY LONG!

 

Kiddie rides

 

Caleb LOVED all the car rides.

Egg Crack Ride -  as Caleb called it!

This is Alayna's "I'm way too scared to ride any rides face!" 

Lovin the baby boat ride because he was the only one that could ride it!

He's the winner! He rode the scariest rides..Way to go Jake!

 

Bring on the ice cream...we were SO hot!

Where should we go next?

Finally after MANY tears, kicking, screaming and a few threatenings that sounded like..."We are totally never bringing you anywhere ever again, no Disneyland, Lagoon, you name it you will stay home if you don't go on a ride!" So we forced her and what do you know....SHE LOVED IT! She did regret not trying any of the "big people scary rides" as she called them. 

 

Caleb is really enjoying being up so high...I on the other hand was a tad nervous he's jump out...but he was super obedient.

 

To end the night we let the kids be "SUPER FUN" and run through the fountains. 

My childhood memory...buying cotton candy on the way home from Lagoon. So of course the tradition lived on!

Soaking wet Jake. Funny story. So our last ride of the night was the baby kiddie bumper cars. Caleb was SO excited all day to finally go on them. Well, the line was long, and we waited. Well, Jake was doing the classic potty dance. I told him if we take him he would miss the ride. He didn't like that so he said he could wait....on went the dancing...then the ride came and ended in about 10 seconds. So worth the wait (sarcasm) Anyways, I tell Jake after we have walked away from the ride, "Let's go potty now"...He looks up at me...pauses...looks down. Well, pretty much he left a puddle for the next kid to pick the BLUE baby kiddie bumper car...Which is the real reason why we decided to let the kids get wet. We needed to wash them off, clean off Jake and then get to the van and change them into all their clean dry extra clothes we had packed! Pretty much is was a really great day!
