How many flags is that?










YES that's right.......IT IS 6. Now I really think Don's new job has great taste in where they decided to hold their company party this year. We all went to six flags on Saturday. We got great deals on the tickets and they even fed us and gave us free soda throughout the day. We thought it was going to storm and I told the kids to pray and pray that it wouldn't and it ended up being HOT HOT HOT. The lines were quite long and so it made it hard to wait with all the kids but they had sooooooooooo much fun. I think their favorite ride was the ride that (can't remember the name) is sort of like a roller coaster and it slams down into the water and you get soaked. Don took everyone but Mayah on that. They loved it. Then the other favorite was a huge round tube that slid down an enourmous water slide. It went in multiple circles and then ended in a pool of water. I took the kids on that and it was FUN. If the line wasn't so long I would have gone on that one multiple times. The kids really wanted to do something a little scary so I took them on a roller coaster. It actually HURT. It whipped you around so hard and Zach hit his ear on the side. I had to hold on so tight and I was laughing so hard because it was so uncomfortable. I couldn't imagine anyone liking that ride. I mean I like scary rides but I don't like PAIN. We went on a few other rides and let the little kids ride some kiddie rides. We didn't make it over to the water area. Caleb and Zach wanted to go on the half pipe soooooooooooo bad but Rachel ended up getting a high fever and the double jogger ended up breaking as well so it was time to go home. I would have loved to stay a bit longer and take the kids to the water park... but oh well. Maybe another time.
