Our Week of FUN

Okay so remember when I told you all last week that we were going to Cedar Point and the Zoo and to a beach? Well it didn't exactly happen as originally planned... but we still did the fun stuff. Let me tell ya we had an AMAZING week! God blessed us so much!



On Monday, we just relaxed at home and had fun as a family.


On Tuesday (we were originally going to Cedar Point but it was raining in Ohio) my dad planned a big surprise for us. My mom knew but my brothers, sister and I had no idea. We started guessing parks we know of and other fun places but we were way off! My dad surprised us and took us to the Tigers game! It was sooo much fun (even though the Tigers didn't win)! We had a blast! Even AJ liked it!



On Wednesday, we went to the Zoo. That was also lots of fun! Here are some pics:
This polar bear was kinda funny sitting on top of the aquatic tunnel! lol



These kangaroos were trying to keep cool from the hot sun! It was about 85 degrees out!
This lion was huge! And we could hear him gently roaring. It was pretty cool and AJ really thought it was awesome! :)
On Thursday my mom had to go to work so we stayed home and just cleaned the house, played outside, and hung out with family.
On Friday........ drum roll please.............................. we went to........................................... CEDAR POINT!!!!!!!!!!!! It was soooo fun! I went on at least 20 rides! We rode on
The Iron Dragon (3 times),
Blue Streak (4 or 5 times I can't remember),
Gemini (3 times),
Corkscrew (once),
Wildcat (once),
the Pirate Ship (once),
Disaster Transport (twice!) and many more!!! My sister and I named ourselves the Triple S (same seat sisters) because we went on almost every ride sitting next to each other!

Other rides we went on were the Convertible Cars (i rode by myself the first time in a pink convertible and the second time with AJ in a purple convertible. We also rode the old fashioned cars, the race horse carousel (2 times) and other fun stuff we could all do like the high swings!
I haven't downloaded the pics from my camera yet so when I get a chance I will post some from Cedar Point.
Post more later!!!
Blessings,
Butterfly

I'm back :) Hey, I went to a zoo about a week ago too! I'm not too much of a baseball fan but going to games is still pretty cool. Cedar point sounds like so much fun! unfortunately I didn't get to go to any amusement parks this summer but we did get to go to the world's (I think) largest indoor water park in Indiana during a timeshare with my Grandpa a a few cousins. It was so much fun! We got to go two days in a row because the first day we had to wait for an hour (it felt like longer) right when we entered the park and were about to get wet because of a thunderstorm. So we stayed for about 90 minutes after we got free day passes for the next day! We went in the morning and again in the evening. Sweetness! I'm really happy right now because I bought and am listening to Leeland's new album Love is one the Move! I love it, I love it, I love it! Jesus loves you! :)
