Dave and I packed the girls up and headed out to Adventureland
for some end of summer fun! We had a great time and experienced some
really cool "big kid" parent moments:
1. No stroller, no diaper bag.
2. A lot more rollercoasters
3. Dave and I can't ride spinning rides, but the girls can
4. Our kids actually like each other
5. We all really love warm, sugary donuts
Without sounding overly dramatic, it was the Perfect Day!
We laughed, we got along, we learned a little magic.
We ate bad food, we ran at full speed, we won some junk.
We are crazy blessed with 3 amazing kids and one awesome marriage!
I think Ella summed it up best; "we have a lot of family traditions mom.
Can this be a new one?" Oh, yes it can!

| The girls and I rode this over and over. Then, as we were leaving, the 3 girls rode it some more, by themselves! Yes, Dave and I sat and watch out girls riding a big ride, by themselves! Wow! |
 |
| I did make them ride a few kiddie rides just to make me happy! |
 |
| The first of several roller coasters! |
 |
| Priceless! |
 |
| I love the laughing girls, that just minutes before were claiming this to be a "boring, baby ride!" |
 |
| One of our favorite parts was a last minute stop at the magician show. We had a ton of fun, were wowed by his awesome tricks and managed to come home with several 'illusions' of our own! |
Every now and then I get a moment to stop and realize
how awesome I have it. Today was one of those days.
Thank you God for my wonderful family!
