Lagoon

Yet another weekend in Utah with fabulous weather, and I'm happy to say that I didn't waste this one either. Since I had a couple of Lagoon tickets (I always seem to be traveling when we have our company party, but lucky for me they give me some tickets anyway), Steph and I decided a Lagoon Day would be fun. Kris and Sterling weren't able to join us ... but next time Atticus will be old enough to enjoy it a little more.

As Utahans know, they have "Frightmares" at Lagoon during the October weekends. There's something for every age, so you can get as scared as you want to be. For Kaiya and Teague, the trick or treating was pretty fun. You go through several rooms, each with a theme (Alice in Wonderland, Wicked Witch, etc.) and they all hand out a treat.


After the trick or treating, Kaiya decided that she wanted to go through the Tunnel of Terror (I think that's what it's called), so Mom and Dad and Kaiya and Teague did. We were a bit worried that it would be too scary, but they did just fine. :-)

We took turns with the kids in kiddie land, which I thoroughly enjoyed doing. It's so much fun to watch little ones have fun! Kaiya has apparently inherited her mom's bravery with rides, and is pretty much game for most. Teague is not as sure, but he is one heck of a trooper - even when it makes him nervous, he just soldiers his way through it. He had a death grip on my arm on the Jumping Dragon, but he never lost it. And he even agreed to go a second time on the Tilt-a-Whirl, 'cause Kaiya and I wanted to so much. Kaiya said "Again!" when it was through, but Teague thought he had compromised quite enough.



Teague's favorite was the cars ... but Kaiya thought they were boring and slow.


I. Love. These. Two!!!!

I mean seriously ... how could you not? Look at that face.
Today I am awaiting an overnight visit from my sister Karen and her family. They're in town for my neice's wedding (SO happy for Kara and Johnny!). It's always great to see them ... can't wait!
