Worlds of FUN! (Part 1)

 Our trip to Worlds of Fun on August 14th!

We spent most of the day at Planet Snoopy.

Micaiah was apprehensive at first, but

by the time we were ready to leave he was hugging Charlie Brown.

One of Anna's favorites is the carousel.

Here is Micaiah on his favorite the train ride.

Our kids are thrill seekers!!!

They enjoyed riding on the caterpillar kiddie roller coaster.

If you look closely, you can see Micaiah's little hands sticking up in the air.

Anna and Lucy

Before and After

Yes, Anna enjoyed riding the Sea Dragon.

It is like the Pirate Ship.

After the first ride, she told me it gave her butterflies in her tummy.

And then she wanted to do it again to see if she could put her hands up in the air!

And celebrating our 6th wedding anniversary!!!!!!
We celebrated with a night out on the Plaza where we enjoyed delicious food at Brio's
along with some great conversation, laughter, and even tears from laughing so hard!
Then we walked around and enjoyed the evening atmosphere
and listened to some great music.
It was a really refreshing and fun anniversary.

Micaiah's first visit to a movie theater!

(and he even sat through watching Kung Fu Panda!)

Anna's first high dive experience!!!
She was very brave...and did a great job swimming.

Anna and her two new teeth!!
Yes, she lost both bottom front teeth without crying!
When they came out, her teeth underneath were already coming through.

Micaiah enjoying the water and the slides.

With less than a week to the start of the school year, we are going to live up
every last moment of this warm sunshine!
Hope you have fun doing the same.
