The weather was absolutely perfect! Everything was great except Isaiah wasn't feeling good...I knew it would happen, we have been sick-free at our house for way too long, so of course the night before grandma was coming, Isaiah started coughing and sniffling, and by Saturday he had a full blown cold...but he was such a trooper, and we had a GREAT day. Thanks Mom and Dad for watching Levi while we went off to the rollercoasters!
We arrived at the park a few minutes before it opened at 10--if you know Mark, you know he likes to be the first ones in the park--so we made it just in time.
Here we are waiting for the gates to open.
We decided our first ride should be one that Isaiah would LOVE...Mark picked bumper cars...and it was the perfect start!!
Isaiah spotted the Semi-truck ride that was right outside the bumper cars...he REALLY wanted to ride it...so of course he did!Grandma and Daddy got to be his passengers.
He loved it so much that when the worker asked if he wanted to do it again, he said, "yes!" ...this time Uncle Matthew and I rode along.

We picked a great day to go! We were one of the few people at the park that day so we got to go on lots of the rides a couple times in a row...the Space Shot was the first big ride for Mark, Matthew and I (Grandma and Isaiah found a firetruck to ride) it was so slow that we got to ride it three times in a row without even getting off the ride!While we took a food break, Isaiah spotted the big waterslide ride and really wanted to give it a try...so we walked up to the ride and he changed his mind, Daddy and Matthew decided to ride it without us, but when Isaiah saw they were still going to go, he wanted to go after all...After riding it, I can't believe they let little kids ride this one! Mark had to hold on to him tight...there is not a single safety belt or anything to hold you in! I'm not so sure Isaiah would want to do it again...at least not this year!
Grandma Michele, Mark and Matthew all went on the Outlaw together while Isaiah and I checked out the covered wagon and watched...the boys decided to go again, but Grandma came back to hang out with us...
Isaiah went on several more rides...He flew an airplane.
Isaiah and Daddy had fun riding the dragon.
Rode in the tea cups with grandma.
Went on his first ever ride (last year) again, the ladybugs, three times! First he picked a green one...then when we went back later, he picked yellow, but decided on the second round, he wanted green again.
Later, he wanted to go back to the bumper cars, so we did that one again too.
Isaiah wasn't in the mood to eat anything (including ICE CREAM--daddy offered it to him twice and both times he said no!!)...until 1:30 in the afternoon...we stopped to watch the "Sugar and Spice" show and daddy brought Isaiah a hot dog and fries, and Grandma brought him a Sunny D...He was happy about the juice... look at thos droopy eyes :(
Good thing he wasn't very hungry! He shared his fries with a little chipmunk that hung around our table...he got right next to Isaiah's chair, within a few inches of his feet, and begged for food! So of course we fed him! :)While we were feeding the little guy, Uncle Matthew got to be a part of the show! They picked him out of the audience to come up on stage to be a part of their song. He was really excited about it! ha ha
Then around 2, Isaiah was so so tired, that Mark reclined the stroller back and told Isaiah to take a rest, and he did! He layed right down and fell asleep!
We strolled him into the Bingo hall and we took turns playing bingo to let him get a good nap in.Guess who got bingo twice? :) yep, me!!
Isaiah even got to meet Bernie the Benard, Adventureland's macot! He was a little shy at first, but gave him a big hug and a high five!
It was then time for our last ride of the day, the Train...but really it wasn't because Isaiah talked daddy into riding the Carousel with him again...Us on the train.
Inside the train station is a candy shop. Isaiah got to pick out any piece of candy that he wanted, look what he chose! A swirl sucker...he ended up hardly eating any of it, but he really thought it was cool. Notice his new shirt too... Thanks Great Grandma!
Finally, Isaiah went on the "daddy ride." and rode through the park on Mark's shoulders.
What a wonderful day!I can't wait to go back again next year (with Levi, too!)!
