Lazy Days of Summer....hah!

There has been no such thing as "lazy" summer days at our house. We've been busy with lots of fun family things and we've taken lots of pictures...and now I'm super behind on blogging. You've been forewarned...lots of pictures to come, but take it or leave it, whatever!

First off, I need to wish my hubbie, "Happy Anniversary!" We've been married for 11 years today. Thanks so much hon for making me laugh and smile all these years. I love you more today than I did 11 years ago, I didn't think that was possible, but I do. Thanks for being who you are, I love you!

June 26th we had Lagoon Day with the Lindley's. My brother-in-law, Rick, works for ATK Thiokol and got us a great deal on tickets. It was a perfect day; mostly cloudy all day and cool temps. Brad had to work, so I took Meag, Linds, and Tanner with me, and my sister, Aimee, watched Ellie for me (thanks a million Aim!). I wish I'd had my camera on the Rattlesnake Rapids ride. It was HILARIOUS! Steph, me, and all the kids (Meagan, Taylor, Lindsay, Abbey, Tanner, and Kayden) went together and by the end, half of us were laughing, and the other half were crying. We (Steph and I) didn't want to get too wet, but we got SOAKED. Tanner kept laughing and saying, "We get wet, we get wet!", Kayden was crying, Lindsay and Abbey were none too happy, and Meagan and Taylor were grinning from ear to ear! I think it was my favorite ride of the day. Thanks Steph and Rick....we're counting down the days until next year!

Right before we left, the kids played at the water fountains.....uh, yeah, they got a little wet.

Smiley Meagers!

This was Linds' favorite ride....I think she went on it about 5 times.

Nice peaceful looking ride, right? Hardly! It was a little creepy, no seat belts, and Tanner (sitting with me and not in this picture) kept pulling himself up too close (at least for my comfort) so his feet could dangle. Sorry Mom about that mental image. This ride stopped (and when it stops, it bounces up and down and swings side to side) at least 4 times while we were on it, and yes, we were at the highest part too!

I love this picture, everyone is so happy to be at Lagoon and loving the train ride (Tanner's fave).

Taylor and Meagan
Blogger is being annoying right now (or maybe its my ineptitude) but I can't move my pictures around where I want them and so I didn't get a picture of my cute nephew, Kayden. Sorry buddy, I still love ya!

  2. What a fun day! I was nervous on the non seatbelt ride before I even read your caption. Yikes! I am glad Linds shares my love of the swings. Hope you got Meags on the white roller coaster this year. I can't believe how soaked Tanner was at the end of the day. What a great time you had with the cousins!
