What Fun Is!

Last Thursday we decided to pack up the kids and head up to Lagoon. They were having a 2 for 1 admission so we decided to take advantage of the deal, plus our friends were going. We kind of a late start, we didn't get there until around 3 pm (I was shooting for 1 pm-oh well). Leslie and Connor ended up joining us and we all met Chad, Ann, Tenney, and Christian.
We dropped off our stuff and the first ride we chose was Rattlesnake Rapids, then the guys (Jordan and Chad) took all the kids to Lagoon-A-Beach while the girls (Me, Ann, and Leslie) went on the big rides. At this point Lisa and Art met us. By the time we met up with everyone, Me and Leslie, with Art and Lisa, took the kids around the kiddie land while Jordan, Chad, and Ann went to Wicked (the most fun roller coaster ever) and few other rides. We all met up again and while the kids went on the new ride OdySea, Leslie, Ann, and I went on Jet Star. When we got up to the front, there was a sign that said 'No Single Riders' but there was no way we were all 3 going to fit in one section of the car, so we asked the attendant what we could do. All he did was point to the sign (he was such a jerk) and so Leslie didn't get to go. Me and Ann sat down and the attendant was still a jerk. He kept making snide remarks to us up until the ride started. I have to say that that was the least fun I had the whole day (and it wasn't because of you Ann), the guy just didn't make the experience a very pleasant one, plus it really hurt my legs because I was in a awkward position. After Jetstar, we joined everyone back at the OdySea. The kids rode that ride like 5 more times because they liked it so much.
After all that we went to Pioneer Village to get some ice cream. Along the way we noticed that there was no line for the Log ride so we did that first. We ended doing that ride 3 or 4 times and never had to get out of the log. There was absolutely no line! Then we got our ice cream. It was a pretty hot day so the ice cream was a nice treat.
After all that I took Trae on his favorite ride-Music Express. He loves that one. I had Trae and Tenney with me and Leslie had Conner and Elie with her. We did that ride a couple of times too. Trae and Tenney laughed the whole time.
The park was just about to close by this time, and we all kind of split up to leave, but not before making it on one last ride-the Carousel. The kids still have a good time on that ride and I like to see their faces.
