Colorado Cousins

This past weekend we got to have house guests.  My sis-in-law and her kids came for a visit from Colorado.  JT's brother had to head back early because of work and we missed him.  We had fun hanging out at home and also a fun day at Lagoon.

Kyson wanted to get wet and every ride we went on he just got a few splashes.  This is his look of great disappointment!

Bri has mastered the art of the blood-curdling scream.  This is her screaming while we were riding the FERRIS WHEEL! (scary...)

I have to share how proud I am of my daughter.  A few years ago she got it in her head that she didn't like roller coasters.  She would try a few but then put her foot down and wouldn't ride any of the big rides at Lagoon.  This made me not want to take her there, so it has been three years since we have really even been to Lagoon.  This year I told her I would like her to try a few and see if her feelings have changed.  She resisted for most of the day, but in the end I told her that I would go on some "hurley" rides with her if she would go on some roller coasters with me.  She got up the nerve and absolutely LOVED them, and wants to go back and ride some more!  The second part of that story is that I kept my promise and rode a hurley ride, and well...hurled.  Not the best end to a fun day, but still proud of my girlie.
