Perfect Saturday

Today we were lucky enough to have a free Saturday with nothing to do, but spend time together, this may not seem like much to most, but it rarely happens to us. We always have one thing or another to do which isn't bad, but it is nice to have a day where we can take our time and enjoy being with each other. We decided to take the kids to Carowinds amusement park, and they loved it. We have had season's passes all summer, but today the weather was perfect and the crowds were small. They also had tons of fun fall activities for the kids to do on top of the normal rides. We let the kids guide the day, it was a blast watching there faces light up with smiles.



















Brice wasn't too crazy about the group picture, the rest love the pumpkin scarecrow .














This is a Dora balloon ride, neither of the boys wanted to go, but we convinced them to join Jeremy and Ashley. Ethan loved it and Hayden was scared to death, (notice Jeremy holding his hand and Ashley stroking his head.) he cheered when it was finished.













The Dora sing-a-long show. The kids loved every minute and their daddy had some fun with the chicken dance too. What a daddy won't do for his babies,now that is a good man!!!!













The ghost bubble were the kids favorite. It was one of the fall things brought in for just this time of year, 3 huge ghost blowing tons of bubbles. The kids were able to play and almost swim in the bubbles. They absolutely loved it!!!!!

















Hayden was so proud of all his bubbles. He was even brave enough to get in with the big kids.













"Hey, what's on my head?"













Ethan thought he was surfing.

















Ashley was ready to jump right in. They were soaked by the time they were through, but at least they smelled good!














Brice found a good way to pass the time while the others were on rides by chewing on his shoes and shoe laces. It was entertaining and a little tasty too.













Ethan loves roller coasters, but he always makes this face on the first drop down!! It is the best!!

















Ready to ride the Carousel. Brice loved just sitting there with Ashley, but as soon as it started moving he didn't like it too much and wanted his daddy.














Mom and Ethan are ready to ride too. He switched horses 4 times, it took him a while to find just the right one.














Hayden and Ashley our future pilots!
