Amusement Park Fun



The amusement park was fun. The girls had a really long day. We all got up at 8am and drove to the park and got there just after it opened. Unfortunately it wasn't too warm on Friday. I was hoping it would last but this is Seattle and well if you don't like the weather wait ten minutes is the saying around here.

We did all the rides we could with the girls. I think the favorite was the frog hopper. Keira was so excited and poor Grace was so scared she started crying before the ride even started. We told the ride operator to just start the ride. After 10 seconds grace was laughing just like Keira.


Another favorite ride was the sack slide. the girls walked all the way up alone with their sacks and went down the great big slide. Keira loved it.


We also went on boats, cars, ferris wheel, ship, and a paratrooper ride that made both mommies really sick. But both girls loved it so it was worth it.

After the rides we hit the water park. The kiddie area was lots of fun but the water was ice cold. We headed to the congo river and floated around. After the river we saw an inter tube ride we really wanted to go on. When I say we I mean the moms. So we got the 4 person inter tube and headed up the 5 flights of stairs. We get to the top and had to tell the girls a small white lie. Yes we are evil moms. We start to go down and its all fun and slow then we hit the first drop and thats when poor Grace lost it. She started screaming. We are slinging up the sides of this slide. Keira had the first to get slung up and she was high up the slide then we switched sides and it was Grace's turn to ride the side of the slide. Megan and I were laughing the whole time. Then at the bottom we hit the pool and Megan went flying head over heels backwards into the water. Poor girl has a hurt back and we didn't think anything bad was gonna happen. After I found out she was fine I was laughing so hard. I couldn't get out of this darn inter tube and Grace was still crying. Of course my girl was asking to go again. We really all had a lot of fun. We left the park at 4:30 and headed to the hotel. It was a really tiring day but we really enjoyed it.
