lagoon

It was Vawdrey family day at Lagoon! A very much anticipated day by several of the kids. The excitement was contagious and we all had a fun day -- even grumpy Grandpa, who pretty much hates Lagoon. Matthew has been looking forward to riding airplanes for a whole year! He especially enjoys the ones that have guns attached so he can shoot AND go in circles!
Matthew & Zach testing their driving skillz.
Totally HATE waiting in line for a ride!
We stood in line FOREVER to ride the log ride, the kids loved it. We even managed to keep Zach's shirt dry (by removing it for the ride) -- he detests being wet and tends to strip off clothes, no matter where he is!
A smaller version of the Tidalwave ride -- perfect for Zach, me, and Matthew.
The new Bombora ride turned out to be a favorite. Notice that even Grandpa enjoyed the ride with Matthew. Me & Zach are right behind them.
The scrambler -- one of my favorites! Matthew liked it too!
Matthew & I were good lagoon day buddies. I managed to ride The Bat with the big boys, but they spent 99% of their day riding the exciting rides with Mark, David, Ethan, and/or Eric (rides in which I am a big chicken) . Somehow I totally missed riding anything with Jacob - sad - but he had loads of fun with Sarah and Rachel. Hopefully, they rode all the rides that Sarah had made a list of -- funny girl! Days like this are what good memories are made of and what makes us want to spend time together again.
