They were excited to go on this ride because they didn't get a chance to go on it last year.

Ready to go!

Maxair

Dylan and Nicholas

Mom doesn't like the rides. She just comes along to facilitate the fun

We were playing around while we waited for the others to go on the Wicked Twister.

Jonathan, Luke and Kyle were unable to go on the Wicked Twister because it started Thunder and Lightning

Making silly faces!

Now what? Many of the rides shut down due to the weather.

We wouldn't be able to get our money back...

The kids decided to play in the rain

We try to teach our kids to make the best out of whatever situation they find themselves in

Wet Monkeys!

We ended up finding some rides open in the pouring rain

Nicholas riding the Matterhorn

Dylan and Kyle

He's such a happy kid

Riding the Mine Ride

They were already wet...why not go on Thunder Canyon?

There they go

Here they come!

Mantis!

Kyle was excited to ride the Dragster!

The day went down hill after this.

I think everyone started getting tired.

Nicholas decided throw one of his tantrums and wouldn't come with us...there was a communication breakdown and Luke took off alone to the Wind Seeker. Jonathan and Kyle went to find Luke. I stayed where he disappeared from, in case he returned. Nicholas decided he was going to the car, so I sent Dylan with him. Jonathan found Luke. I headed to the car. Got to the car and there wasn't any Nicholas or Dylan. Dylan had forgotten to bring his cell phone with him that day. So, I'm calling Jonathan frantic! He starts searching for them in the park, while I drive all over the parking lot looking for our boys. Jonathan got security looking for our boys, too. Not finding them, I finally went to the gate entrance/exit to wait for them. Knowing they couldn't leave without my seeing them. Jonathan and the other two boys met up with me. As soon as we caught up on what had been happening, Kyle looks up at the Carousel and says "Look Mom, they are right there!" RELIEF!

Even with the "bumps" in the day, we had a great Family Day!
