CALIFORNIA MEMORIES: PART 3

Tuesday (24th) morning we woke up went down to eat our continental breakfast, showered and headed out made a quick stop to get gas and ice for the coolers, then drove a block up the road to six flags… we were all pretty excited!!

it was a bit chilly when we first got there (that’s why the kids are in pants, but we brought extra clothes to change, THANKFULLY because it sure warmed up!!) as soon as we got inside we seen some characters, brody didn’t seem to mind them at all : )

peyton had fun on the rides, bailey did also.. brody was a bit scared of this one, he ended up toleratign it until the end but clenched on to daddy thru the entire ride!

I didn’t get very many pics in here because it was so dark and I didn’t want to use my flash

watching dolphins (unfortunately we missed their feeding, bailey remembers feeding the dolphins at Sea World several years ago) I think peyton would of liked it… next time! : )

the Whale show was super fun (seemed quicker than Sea Worlds) but very neat! ryley, bailey and peyton sat up in the front so they could get wet in the splash zone.. and apparently peyton didn’t understand what getting splashed by a whale would be like because she wasn’t too happy about it afterwards I think it scared her : /

speaking of soaked me and the kids rode the water raft ride while brody napped in his stroller and daddy snapped some pics

IMG_6485

well as you can see here peyton and I got the crap seats and were drenched!!! poor peyton was crying, again she didn’t realize how wet and how much water was going to be dumped on her, nto to mention it was a bit chilly being wet so she was shaking….the other 2 got really wet too, you can see bailey covering her head but she still got wet ha!

we got to the giraffe feeding time just in time, we pauid extra to let the kids feed the giraffe’s and to have a pic taken with them, I’m so glad we did because it was me and brody’s favorite thing I think.. she was sooo cute!

and she was so good with the kids brody kept putting his hands in her mouth and touching her nose (which they didn’t want him to so we had to try to get him to stop) but she was so gentle and never acted like she even cared : )

brandon waited in line for about 15 min to ride this new ride but apparently something wasn’t working properly on it so they closed it down (for the 2nd time that day) so they told everyone in line they could come back in awhile and have their spot back in line, but brandon decided it probably wasn’t the best idea.. something must be wrong with it lol and sure enough look here what happened a few days later : /

we had a lot of fun!! ryley wasn’t too crazy about it.. he don’t like rides, but he did enjoy the shows, the girls loved it! brody was a very good boy for the whole day!!, we definatly could of used 2 days at the park but didn’t know that until after I had already paid for the tickets and had talked to a few people, but it was still fun..and next time we might try to swim with the dolphins!!
