Six Flags!

On Saturday morning, we surprised the kids with tickets to Six Flags (thanks Aunt Lisa!!).
We had such a fun day. Riley was finally tall enough to ride every single ride, and let me tell you, he rode EVERY single ride! I'm sad to say, I must be getting old.....those rollercoasters aren't quite as fun as they used to be. Talk about a headache!

What's wrong with this picture??

Addie made a few little girls mad because I let her put her toes in the water, and their mom wouldn't let them! What can I say, she's my 3rd child! ha
Time for a break...

Notice Alyssa's expression after getting off the roller coaster!

This is the roller coaster they were on.....
This is the only shot I got of Addison in the boat.....right before she almost jumped ship, and we had to take her off!
Mommy and Addie riding Scooby Doo's mystery machine....
It was a fun day.........

Fun! Ben went twice in the past few weeks. I haven't been there the past few years. We like to go on Homeschool Day - it's a lot less crowded. Last time I couldn't ride as many roller coasters as I used to. I do hope I can ride a few more maybe just one more time! I love the Raging Bull.

Looks like a blast! It's humbling when you realize the roller coasters aren't so fun anymore, isn't it! Last time I went to 6 Flags, I rode one of the extreme roller coasters with my nephew just to prove I was still a cool aunt (his mom wouldn't go). Oh my gosh, what a mistake!

How fun!! I have fun now taking the girls on the "kiddie" rides, but I don't know how I'll do when they get older. I used to be fearless on those things, but not anymore!

Looks like you all had a fun time! My boys went this year too with their cousin and uncle, so I was spared going on the rollercoasters! Whew!

I wish I could have gone with you! It looks like a perfect day! I only feel old when I'm waiting in line for the roller coasters and I'm about to wet my pants because I'm so scared. Once I ride them, I feel 10 years old again!

Wow~the pictures tell what great fun you all must have had. You are much braver than me~no rollercoasters,just happy to "ride the benches" and people watch while everyone else seeks the thrill rides.
