Summer Fun

IdleWild was having a buddy day while Attie was visiting, so we decided to take a trip out to enjoy the fun. We had a blast. Caleb and Attie loved the rollercoaster and the log ride. Makaylee had a rough time being too little for most everything that Caleb wanted to go on, but we all got to enjoy Whip-it. They road ponies, watched a Circus and got their faces painted. Side note, Sissy, does not like clowns, for the second time she was so scared she was shaking and wanted to get far, far away. After and eventful day they were all exhausted and fell asleep on the drive home.

Caleb wasn't so fond of the dragon staring back at him in the mirror after his nap. He freaked out and wanted it gone, but before the dreary confusion, he thought the dragon was super cool. The girls looked super cute as matching kitty kitties.
The next day we enjoyed more summer fun at the pool, where all three perfected their cannonball.



All smiles when our family is visiting.

WT Disney otherwise known as Idlewild

We found a really fun amusement park, just an hour and half from the house. The crowd it gathered was very diverse, but I think we were exposed to the much referenced hillbilly folk. I felt a little judgemental, but I don't think I've ever seen so many people in one place in bad need of dental hygiene. However, it was really fun and perfect for the little ones. There was also a fun water park included in the price of admission and Caleb and Daddy had fun going down the tube ride together.

All the rides are little kid friendly and Caleb broke out of his cautious self and road a big roller coaster, log ride and a number of rides that whip around and around.
There was even a number of toddler friendly rides that Sissy loved.
Caleb kindly escorted his sweet sister all around the park.

It was very fun, but extremely hot and I don't think I have felt this exhausted in a very long time. We took a walk down memory line through Storybook Forest. All the pictures are of Sissy, because Caleb was so naughty he got grounded to the stroller for the first 2 hours of day two at the Park.

I don't remember this nursery rhyme, but I thought this big chair was a great picture opp.
This "Chu Chu" represented my favorite childhood story, 
The Little Engine That Could
The famous Sword and the Stone
I guess Sister was not The Chosen One.
We took a little break on our tour, so Makaylee could fill her shoes with rocks and dirt.
Caleb's punishment may seem harsh, but the original consequence was grounding the whole day. It was too heart breaking to watch him miss out on the whole day, so we gave him many chances to earn back the privilege of the park. I think I was as happy as him with his success.
