Water park


Once a year our water park offers discount tickets. There is only one catch. You have to get in line very early because they only offer that price to the first 2000 people in line. The doors open at 7 AM. We got up at 5:00 and made the 45 minute drive. Zander did really well waiting in line. We got in and went to a pool first. It had a large pirate ship that you could jump off of. He loved it until he fell off of the side and skinned his knee. My favorite ride is the Cyclone Cove. It is a round circle with a current. You put on a life jacket and just let it pull you around. It is very relaxing. Zander and Dad rode the Bonzai Pipeline. It is a very tall slide with a bump in it. Most of the time you become airborn at the bump. I was a nervous wreck. Zander was too small to hold onto the handles so Summers just wrapped his legs around him the best he could. THey are on the right in the video and you can see them just hanging before they start down. They made it and he rode it 3 more times. I didn't watch anymore. Then they went on the Tunnel of Terror which has a 4 story drop. It is totally enclosed and in complete darkness. He loved it! We had a great day and were all very tired. Once a year is enough for me.

Preschool Graduation

This is my new favorite picture!


This is Zander not wanting to go on stage and dance. This is his nervous face.

This is what Zander wants to be when he grows up.

I can't believe that Zander has graduated from Preschool and will be attending Kindergarten in the Fall. The school that he currently attends has been open for almost 3 years and they have never had a graduation. I met with the director and teacher and helped them put together a Hawaiian themed graduation. It was really funny. Zander does not like to be in front of people and usually won't say or do anything. Not this time! This time he wouldn't be quiet. He really didn't want to dance or sing though. It was really cute.

More Birthday




We usually go to the Mexican Restaurant for birthdays. Zander loves it and they always put the sombrero on him and sing. For some reason this year they also put one on PaPa and the pictures were too good not to share.
