adventureland!

sorry for my absence!  been trying to get some quality time in with the kiddos before our summer is completely gone.  yesterday we took the boys on a day-cation to adventureland in altoona.  they were sooooo excited to go. believe it or not, we've never been there with them & this year we are trying to stay close to home with dan's mom being so ill.  we sort of went on a whim... we had the tickets, but weren't sure when we were going to go. my parents were available for lydie sitting early this week & the weather was looking good for monday, so luckily we were able to pack up quick & go!  it was really fun taking just the boys, they don't often get time just with us & they were both very appreciative of getting away for a fun day!

here are some pics off my phone i took with a sorta fun app i have on there called photo fx... these ones are taken with the fx toy camera... 

what's  better than a super ginormous $6 icee after a hard day at the park?

just getting off the raging river... they weren't too happy. 45 min wait for a 2-3 ride at the end of the day. oh well :(

i've got some more pics on my little point n shoot that i have to find the cord to get the pics off onto my computer... i'll post more later ;)

all in all it was a great, tiring, fun summer trip.  we need to find a roller coaster companion to go with the boys next time... they love 'em & dan & i were just trying not to puke!  i think we all agreed that the new water park was the best part & can't wait to go back next year :)

oh... & miss Lyd?  she had a fab time with g&g K.  they went to visit aunt betty, got milkshakes, got some school supplies, watched  tom&jerry, & played & played!
