Adventureland






This past Saturday the boys and I went to Adventureland with Ang and Nanc. We had great weather for it and we all had a blast! The first ride that Mitchell wanted to go on was the space shot! He just barely made it for height requirements (after we standed in line for a half an hour) and we were on! He wasn't too scared, (atleast he didn't scream like his mommy did) but after the ride he says, "Boy my legs are sure shaking"! Mitchell was determined to ride every ride he could all by himself! We were impressed how brave both the boys were in riding rides! I thought Connor for sure would be scared! We spent the morning on the adventureland ride side and then we headed to the water park part in the afternoon! The kids had a blast there! I would recommend it to anyone! They had lots of slides for both boys to go on, which was nice because often times Connor doesn't get to go on the water slides! Mitchell of course wanted to go on the tallest slide there was (the green one that goes straight down) but I wouldn't let him. But we went on the one with the slide with mats which was about as tall! Mitchell's favorite slide was the "toilet bowl"slide and Connor probably enjoyed the lazy river the most. A big THANK YOU to Angie and Nancy to inviting us and making the day special! It was a fun day but we were all exhausted after spending 11 hours there that day :)


































4th of July




















We had a great 4th of July with our family! It was filled with lots of fun activities that the boys enjoyed! We started off with Newton's parade in the morning, then we went to a remote controlled plane airshow near by our house where we saw a plane with a jet motor in it that sounded like a real jet taking off! Later that afternoon we went to lake Red Rock and went skiing and tubing. Mitchell even tried to ski all by himself. Aunt Nancy was a great teacher, but Mitchell only wanted to try once! After we stopped at Jersey freeze on the way home we headed to watch fireworks! It was a perfect day enjoying spending time to gether as a family!
