There were a lot of rides and K is finally super excited to go on all of them. She was crazy! I guess one year does make all the difference!
Z, on the other hand, was not so sure about all the rides...
Very serious about steering that truck!
Emmy discovers the horn...
They are so cute!
Emmy tried a ride...
...she didn't let go after it was over...
K's first ride all alone...an airplane. Leave it to the airplane to get her to leave us in the dust.
We also went for a ride on the stagecoach and actually got to sit on the very top.
K got to watch the horses the whole time.
These two got stuck inside so I put the camera over the edge and snapped.
They are just too cute to not take pictures all the time.
Awww, daddies and their girls. :)
As scared as Z was, she did do her first ride alone AND she kept it together throughout. K couldn't go on it cause she wasn't tall enough...not the last time this will be a problem in her life.
Such a handsome "little" guy (he's as big as Emmy already)...
I wanted to see if Emmy would go see Snoopy since he is a dog. She stood about twenty feet away, looking out of the top of her glasses and rubbing her tongue around and around her mouth. She wasn't going near him!!
She did do the carousel ride though.
The kids were so cooperative this day that the adults got to go on several roller coasters and rides all on their own. It was awesome! I haven't laughed that hard in a very long time (my reaction to a serious adrenalin rush is apparently laughter). As J put it, for one brief moment, I forgot I was a mother of two small children.
It got cold near the end of the night as the sun set, but the lights also came on. It was so pretty, all decorated for Christmas! K on her Dad's shoulders...never mind that we have a perfectly good stroller right here.
Time for some family shots.
It was a super fun day! I am so glad we are getting to the point where these things are really fun!
After we left, we went to Nana and Poppy's house for a quick visit. Can you believe they only live a couple miles from here? Lucky! Nana made a cake for M's birthday and we had a nice little party. This is everyone helping him blow his candles out.
In other news, Emmy has been referred to the GI specialist...again...for her low weight. We think she is doing great, and hey, she is strong enough to walk around in Daddy's boots.
It's hard to see what it going on but K is reading to Dad on her bunk. She is very good at reading to us and singing to us and generally entertaining us around the clock.
Snacks with A...
Well, we are headed up north to my parent's new place (our old house) on Monday for our Christmas vacation. It should be fun, although I already dread how jealous I will be of them! :) We want to live back up there, in the beauty, so badly! But, ah, we will be content wherever God has placed us. After all, look at all our beautiful friends and family we have here!
God Bless!!
