It was Stake Lagoon Day and Larry's day off so we decided to take the grands to Lagoon. Little kids just make me smile....and my grands are just so darn cute I can't stop smiling!
Some of the grands were a bit cautious starting out. Even though at first a few didn't ride many rides they still said they were having so much fun. They really liked Lagoon. Ivy went off with Kimi and Jared and did a few "big" rides for a few hours. Then we met for lunch and pretty much stuck together. We ran into Heather Anderson and her boys, and Barbie and the rest of her family. Jared decided to hang out with them and he had a great time. (I love those people!)
We had a great time too. A little after lunch Kamryn came with her Aunt Jen and Grandma Lynette so we played with them. It was so much fun watching the grands get braver and braver. It was so much fun watching the grands enjoy each other. They really do love each other! I love that!!!
It was the perfect day to be at Lagoon. Not a ton of people at all. The grands could get in a line and maybe wait one turn and then it was theirs. Perfect in every way if you ask me! We loved it!
The little tug boats took the longest to get on because they only had one worker who took one child at a time and put them in their boat then walked back to get another child. SLOWwwwww! It was the same to get them off. They can't get accused of not being careful! (they even locked the gate in between each kid. :)
My heart smiled today being with my cute Hubby and darling grands and Kimi & Jared. Dang I love these people.......a bunch! Kimi and Jared are such cute Aunts and Uncles....the grands love them!
Ivy was a cute big sister and cousin when she came back and rode with the younger kids. When Mya finally got brave enough to ride Puff (the roller coaster) Ivy had her arm around her...protecting her! Sweet!
I believe the kids rode every ride as often as they wanted. They all had a great time!
Parker didn't care to ride the rides but he was sure good watching and staying close to us. All these little grands have such cute personalities. Each unique and perfect!
I am so glad that Larry wanted to do this. It really was his idea. It had to be since I couldn't afford it. We just took some $$$ from savings and went. I would rather make memories than interest. ;)
The only "conflict" I even saw was when Kamryn and Mya rode the tug boats together. They both wanted to ring the bell at the same time. It make us all laugh at their little expressions. The last time around the circle Kamryn was ringing it and Mya put her hands over her ears and threw her head back shouting that it was too loud. :D It was funny to us and was over when the ride ended.
Larry tricked Parker with the little swings. He put Parker in and hooked him up and Parker was loving it while it was stopped. He didn't love it when it started and yelled the whole time. I was down a few rides with Ivy and Larry asked if I heard him. I didn't! We didn't trick him anymore.
I know this was a fun day for everyone. The kids were so good and so cute and very grateful. When we were leaving Mya very quietly asked me if they could get something. Since they had been so good we took them in the little gift store and let them pick out a little gift to take home.
I will admit that I was exhausted when the day was over. The sun has always drained me and I felt it today. The grands were great and more fun than anything. We decided that for sure we are taking everyone to Disneyland now in January!
I know I've said it before but Larry is a Dream Maker!!! He makes our dreams come true. Man I LOVE HIM!!!
