Lagoon

Last week we were able to have our Lagoon and Cherry Hill days.  We weren't able to get to Lagoon last year so we for sure didn't want to miss it this year.  We all had such a good time.  It was a really hot day but thanks to Rattlesnake Rapids we were able to get drenched (twice) and that cooled us down for a while.  The kids all had fun on the kiddie rides and even on some of the bigger rides.  The kids rode Bambora at least EIGHT times.  I rode it once with them but they just kept getting back in the line, which really wasn't a line, because it was first thing in the morning. Not much waiting at all.














After a couple of hours we went to the park just behind Pioneer Village and had a picnic.  Sarah had wanted to bring lunch to save money and I'm glad she suggested it.  




After lunch we found this new ride and the kids loved it.  


Wyatt got tuckered out in the heat but seriously, overall he was just so pleasant the whole day and even got to go on a couple of rides with cousins, the boat ride and the Carousel.




We got to ride the new coaster Primordial.  It was in 3D so we got to where these cool glasses.

The last few days of July we took our annual camping trip up to Mirror Lake.  It was super fun!  We loved being with all of our grandkids (minus Zavi)!  We pulled up the trailer while Skylar and Sarah brought up thier tent.  Brach and Kendra, who came a day late because of football tryouts,  rented a trailer, as well.

I love looking at all of these pictures (thank you, Sarah) and remembering all the fun we had.
Here are some things we did...

Played at the lake,
Ate good food (think dutch oven chicken YUM),
Played games in the trailer,
Went on a scavenger hunt,
Enjoyed the cliff view from our campsite,
Did some watercolor (me & Scout))
