Road Trip Part 3: Cedar Point

We spent two days at the Water Park, and then explored Cedar Point the following day. I was VERY nervous about taking them to an amusement park by myself, because one of them is brave, the other not so much. Plus height wise, they couldn't ride all the same rides, and I can't just send one kid by himself. We started with this lame ride, but surprisingly they both enjoyed it. This was on a gondola, Finn was very nervous about it. The ferris wheel almost put him over the top, but Fox was always so sweet and encouraging. Souvenir shopping, this one did not make it home! It was such a hot day and we cooled off with lots of cool treats. We were in line to a coaster that I figured would be okay for Finn, and when we were first in line to get on the ride, I noticed that its name was "Corkscrew". I asked the guys behind us if this ride was going to be upside down and they were like "Oh yea, many times". And this is how Finn rode his first upside down rollercoaster, ...

Road Trip Part 2: Kalahari

The next part of our trip took us 3 hours away to Sandusky, Ohio, where we stayed for a few nights at the Kalahari Waterpark Resort. It was similar to the Great Wolf Lodge and we all loved it. The boys especially loved these milkshakes on our first night there! He's like "Do you see how big this thing is?" We also had a giant pretzel and some actual food, it was all very good! We explored the resort that night, played some laser tag, did a mirror maze, and Finn spent way too much money at the arcade! The next morning we played some Bingo and we got lucky winning several rounds. Showing off all their Bingo prizes! This boy hasn't met a stuffed animal he didn't love. See what I mean? We literally took home a large extra bag filled with stuffed animals and souvenirs from the trip, most them Finn's! I really only wanted to take a picture of them inside the watermark. Little did we know, that the big bucket was about to drop, and they got DRENCHED! The waterpark wa...

Road Trip Part 1: Michigan

The boys and I took a little roadtrip at the beginning of summer break to cross some states of our list! We started out by flying to Michigan, to visit our friend Allison. The best little travelers (as long as they have their iPads obviously). The weather was so nice when we arrived, and Allison took us to a delicious dinner and ice cream afterwards.  He made some acorn art! The view from Allison's new house! We hadn't been there, and it was so gorgeous, inside and out. These might be my new favorite pictures of the boys, I might have to print them and put them in my bedroom! The next morning we had a great breakfast before exploring the city. This guy couldn't decide if he wanted breakfast or lunch, so he ordered both. When in Rome...haha. Finn has been loving claw machines lately, and Allison found this really cool place that was nothing by claw machines. They both had a great time there until we "ran out of money". I can't even tell you how many knick knack...
