Welcome back to the old digs, loyal readers. It's good to be back to the land of writing about whatever I want to. I have a few ideas lined up and stories to tell. It won't be, all boys all the time, but there will be plenty of pictures and stories about them too.
Like this one...
John's employer hosted a Family Fun Day at our local amusement park yesterday. We survived. We spent most of our time at Camp Snoopy, the kid friendly section of the park.
I forgot my real camera (amateur!) but here's a phone shot of the boys first ride. It was a thriller as you can clearly see.
Seth progressed to the more daring rides throughout the day. If he was tall enough - he rode it fearlessly. Thanks to Chad and Katie for hanging out with our brood. Katie stepped in as "the accompanying responsible adult" (that was the requirement for children under 48") on the spin-in-a-circle ride and Seth had a ball!
It took some fancy parenting to entertain Colin, who met the height requirements for very few rides. He loved the ones he rode though. He paid close attention to the sounds other riders were making and imitated them for the duration of the ride. Lots of ooooo's and ahhhhh's.
I funnel caked myself sick. I've already told John, Chad, and Katie that I hold them responsible for reminding me during Family Fun Day 2011 of how badly I felt after Family Fun Day 2010. No more funnel cakes for me.

Um, yeah, I'm totally a "responsible adult!"
When we were in line I said to Chad, "They just let us walk off with their kid! Like we're grown-ups!"
