Over Fall Break we took advantage of the beautiful Indian Summer and went to Lagoon to enjoy Frightmares and one last visit for the year. Nope, we didn't go at the first of the month, it was actually on the 19th, but I have temporarily given up trying to keep my posts in chronological order and am just doing my best to catch up.
Luke and Ruby love going to Lagoon but this was probably their very favorite trip because Brycen and Erika were off of school and work and were able to come with us. I had assumed that they would go off and ride "big kid" rides for most of the day. Instead, they said that they really just wanted to spend time with Luke and Ruby and stayed with us all day. Luke and Ruby were completely in heaven and had the best time taking Erika and Brycen on their favorite rides. And I absolutely loved watching them have so much fun together. Before we got to the park Luke had said that he wanted to ride one of the bigger roller coasters and ended up choosing to go on Colossus and the old white roller coaster. I was shocked to see him act so brave but I think he would do almost anything just to be with the big kids. He is already making plans for the rides he wants to try next year.
The lunch bunch
There are photo ops all throughout the park and I think we stopped and took advantage of nearly every one. I am going to be really sad one day when the kids no longer want to pose for photos.
Ruby loves the story telling witches...especially since one of the witch sisters is named Ruby. We missed seeing her this year, but they were extra cute with Ruby once they heard her name.
A lot of people go to Frightmares for the haunted houses. Not us.....about the time all of the creepy activities get started, we make a point to leave the park. We don't like the scary parts, but we still have a great time at the other activities. The park has several "trick or treat" sections with various characters and scenes. They give out candy and little toys and Luke and Ruby think it is amazing.
