Oh how the kids have waited for this day!!
We took off Saturday morning to be there by opening time. The kids have never been to Lagoon before and have been begging for years. We decided that this was the year to do it.
I am not a good rider. It makes me terribly nauseous. I can do one ride usually the whole day and I won't get sick but more than that, I'm toast!!
Natalie was great to have along because she game for everything.
Same with Kathryn. She loved every ride and it didn't make her sick at all.
Seth and Sarah struggled on several of them--you can see it in Seth's face on Wicked!! Poor guy.
Kathryn loved riding with the big kids and made me quite envious sometimes that she has such a strong stomach :(
Taking the sky ride.
A must.
Luke wanted to ride this and the ferris wheel. We finally got him to loosen up and try a few more rides and then he loved them.
Getting ready--Seth was not thrilled but we talked him into it.
And their off!!
Fun but quite boring. Check that off Luke's list.
All of us afterwards that exciting ride.
This one was the one that made Sam want to vomit. He had to take a break for awhile because he was so nauseous and all white. Haha...
Waiting for Jet Star 2. This was Sam's favorite ride as a kid so he wanted to introduce everyone to it.
The cute girls!!
Reading the map.
My token ride. A kiddie roller coaster. Short and sweet and no throwing up. Perfect!
By this time we were starving so we headed to the picnic area to eat our lunches. Nothing like a picnic lunch at Lagoon. So fun and so many memories. My mom made these cute bags for the girls and they were so excited to have them to haul around their stuff all day.
I love Seth's face in this picture. So perfect!!
The creepster again--so weird!! Good thing we love him!
We made a pit stop to introduce the kids to Dippin Dots.
They have never had that goodness before and they loved it. I forgot how delicious it is and how fun it is to have those little balls melt in your mouth.
The next stop was Rattlesnake Rapids. Sam "offered" to let me go with everyone and he would take pictures. How kind of him!! He we are all on the way through.
And this is us afterwards. I haven't laughed that hard in ages. Seth was so ticked because he was all wet and it just made the rest of us laugh and laugh and laugh. Still makes me chuckle....
Carousel ride. And Seth still mad at being wet.
Luke loved the little kids rides. The plane ones were his favorite.
We headed over to Lagoon-A-Beach while it was still sort of warm. The kids were brave and went down the big slides first. Even Luke.
Kathryn coming out.
Seth.
Natalie.
Sam.
We spent an hour trying everything out and then the kids really wanted to ride more roller coasters. Sam was great and took them all back out while Nat and I sat and relaxed for an hour.
Love my sisters!! They are a blast and I love being able to spend time with them.
We finally left the park at 7:30 and headed to Red Robin again to get some dinner and use up the rest of our gift card. What an absolute wonderful day!! We had such a blast and loved being all together.
Sunday we spent the day with Sam's family. His brother's goats each had twins that day so we got to see them and hold them. So cute!! Plus see the rest of the family that was in town. Sam was also able to give the kids blessings to start school with the help of his dad. Monday morning we packed up and headed to the Ogden Temple Open House. Man was it crazy busy but so neat to see the amazingness of a temple. Then it was off home so we could be ready for school the next day.
What a great time it is to be together!!
