Mini Vacay

Ryan and I met my parents in PA this weekend. We took Natalie to Dutch Wonderland (from Jon and Kate + 8 fame). It's an amusement park totally for kids. Natalie had a blast! She was yelling 'ride rides' from the parking lot and 'whimmin' because she could see the water slides. She liked the Turtle Whirl, but once it got going about 3 or 4 spins in a row and I thought she might puke. She looked completely bored on some of the smaller rides though. I think we have a mini-Ryan dare devil.
Laid back.
It was a LONG ride!
Daddy at the top.
Bye!
We went swimming in the outdoor pool at the hotel. Natalie is getting braver and would stick her face in the water to practice blowing bubbles. She was a major grump when we went out for pizza dinner. She only napped an hour, instead of her usual 2-3, so she passed out and didn't move once she got to bed. Luckily we stayed in a 1 bedroom suite so we put her to bed and played Rummy with my parents before they went back to their room. It was a fun time!

I love PA! It looks like you guys had a great time. We're keeping our fingers crossed for you guys and saying a prayer that Ryan will get a dynamite position that is perfect for your family and your needs. Keep us posted. Finally, Sept. 8-10, Mike'll be in Newport for training (he's taking your numbers with him just in case he has free time!) and supposedly periodically will be there for training (in which case I'll take personal time and go along to visit with you guys)! Won't that be too cool?!

The Turtle Whirl... was that the one where Kate was yelling, "Help!" every time they spun around towards John? Or was that Disneyland?

Yeah, every time the flash on the camera goes off, it goes off twice before the actualy picture is taken, so after the first flash, her eyes get HUGE in reaction. :D lol
