Kiddie Park!

A highlight of a visit home in the summer is a trip to Kiddie Park. I grew up going and now our kids get to enjoy it too. It's an amusement park for little kids and it's cheap - just 25-50 cents a ride!
We weren't sure how many, if any rides Marlee would be able to do. Lane rode the chariots first and we thought we'd let Marlee try riding with him. She loved it!

Then we went to the car ride. Marlee was so excited and Lane loved his tractor.

Marlee and Lane took a ride in a big rig. Marlee opted not to wear her bow on that one.Marlee wasn't big enough to ride the ferris wheel so big brother went alone. We weren't sure he would like it without anyone to ride with him, but he was happy as a clam.

My two little pilots on the airplanes. They had a stick you had to pull back to make them fly. We yelled at Lane everytime he came by to pull back on it to go up in the air. He never quite got it, but one time they came by Marlee was pulling on her stick. Little cutie, wanted to help big brother out. Lane went on his own on the boat ride. He took driving the boat very seriously.

Marlee was happy waiting for Lane while he road the boats. Marlee was so happy all night, she just loved rides. I'm afraid she's going to be a little dare devil.Lane and Daddy went on the roller coaster together and loved it! The most anticipated ride of the night was the train. We all loved the train ride around kiddie park.On our way out Grammy and Grampy went on the carousel with Lane and Marlee. Looking at the smiles on their faces I'm not sure who had more fun.


The crew! We were so happy that Nina and Popeye went with us. Popeye even got the memo and wore his camoflauge pants to match Grampy and Lane's shorts.We stopped at Braums for ice cream on our way home. The perfect treat at the end of a hot night outside!
