Labor Day Weekend

What a busy...but very fun weekend!! We started with games on Friday night...Jeff and Cam went out squirrel hunting, so Jake, MaKenna and Major and I played A LOT of Hungry, Hungry Hippos and Lucky Ducks! The picture to the right shows Major picking one of his many ducks! Saturday we hung out until 3ish, when we left to go to the AMAZING PIZZA MACHINE! What fun! It is like Chuckee Cheese on MEGA steroids! Below is a picture of MaKenna, who with her dad, won the go-cart race!


She also got to ride the Frog Hopper...one of her favorite rides! She is looking forward to that one at Adventureland for her birthday! Below is also a picture of MaKenna and Major on a little Panda Bear ride...you can tell it is his first ride!!! :-)


The kids played TONS of games and rode the rides!! This was MaKenna's first time on this ride...she really enjoyed it! Then we all ate the buffet and headed over to exchange our tickets. MaKenna had the most at 340. Would you believe that she got 34 little bitty puppies!!! UGH! Oh well...it is what she wanted. Then we went home and relaxed some more...and played outside with some friends until after dark.



The next day we decided to take a trip out to Mahoney State Park! That was a lot of fun too!! We started at the horse stables where MaKenna got to ride a pony! She was absolutely thrilled! Her pony's name was Peanut! We got the guys booked on a ride for later on in the day...but below are the pictures of that. I would have LOVED to have gone...but Major and MaKenna needed me...and the boys needed to be...well...just the boys. So, then we went fishing and on the way we stopped at my sister's campground and visited with them awhile. Dad and Rhonda's kids and husband all came with us to the lake to fish a bit. They didn't catch anything though, not even a bite! We had lunch wtih my sisters family and my mom and dad and then we were off to the water park!! We had so much fun at the waterpark!!! Cam and I rode all of the water slides, and there was also a wave pool that we frequented! Major really enjoyed the wave pool...the shallow end anyway! He also enjoyed the pool...he just splashed and splashed and splashed! We only stayed until around 6ish. We had someone coming to look at the jeep so we had to get home, but it was a very fun and very full day. Being out in the sun kinda wore us all out. In fact, Monday we were all so tired, we slept in and just lounged around the house! You can see in the pictures below how tuckered out the kiddos were after our very full day!!





They were asleep before their heads even hit the pillows!!! Tomorrow I will tell you all about the wonderful Poison Oak that Jeff is suffering with now. UGH!
