Lagoon

We had the annual Lagoon Day with Ryan's family on Friday, July 17th. I think this is the first year where we had each family there. We were only absent one family member but hopefully he'll be able to join us next year. Of course we had to go on the hottest day of the year (not that we knew that when it was planned), which is difficult when you have a 2 month old that is breast feeding, but it all worked out.



Benji got to go on a lot of the bigger rides this year. He is still too short for some of them but he did get to go on the Mouse and Wicked which he absolutely loved. He also got to ride on the adult bumper cars with Kim and Garrett and thought that was the coolest thing ever.




Alyssa went on all the kiddie rides still as she is still too short to even think about going on the bigger rides and I'm afraid it will be a few more years before she's even close. Poor kid is going to be short just like her mom. She had fun no matter what ride she was on as long as she got to ride with Mollie.



James screamed on every ride we put him on. He wanted to ride them but as soon as we got on would start screaming. We found one ride that he finally loved. The bumper cars! Can you believe it? As soon as he would get off, he would run over to me and say one more time. Of course I couldn't turn that down and spent most of the day there with him. It was a lot of fun to watch.


Even Taylor enjoyed herself as she did not really sleep the whole day except for two little 10 minute cat naps. She did great and wasn't really fussy.


We enjoyed hanging out with the whole family and having this fun day. Our family stayed in the campground that is right there and the kids loved camping out. It made it easier as we didn't have to drive home when we were tired. Ryan got the fun job of sleeping with the boys and by morning James had pushed him most of the way off the bed. The girls and I slept on the other side and it was fine except for being so hot.


We look forward to Lagoon Day next year!
