After the
reunion and Bloomington Lake, we left the lake and headed on a little family trip to Jackson Hole (man we sure are trying to soak up family time before our boy takes off for college!). But first, we met up with our cousins in order to fit in our second annual Lagoon trip.
You see, last year, after years of begging we decided to give in and take the kids to an amusement park near where our cousins live.
And of course, the cousins were part of the plan.
It's interesting how something as little of that can become a tradition.
A pretty fun tradition I have to say!
(That's my favorite ride I think. See Elle and McKenna below on the left?)
A highlight was riding the brand new ride there.
Ok, maybe
that one's my favorite. It is AWESOME. See those people heading down that slope at behind us? I am a roller-coaster-lover through and through.
My childhood fav. was "Tidal Wave." (We lived close to Lagoon and got to go on very rare occasion.) Didn't disappoint Julie and I this year :)
One ride that
did disappoint was this one water one (I think "cliff hanger") that pretty much just strapped us in and doused us with a waterfall.
We were hot, so a little water is nice, but a waterfall? Seth cracked us all up with all his banter on the ride so it was totally worth getting drenched. Us two got the most soaked:
These two were the biggest dare-devils:
(We left the two littlest with a babysitter...Lu didn't love it so much last year.)
So crazy that I ran into one of my best high school guy friends that I haven't seen for years right as we were leaving. His wife was the daughter of Dave's mission president in Taiwan. Such a small world and such a cute family.
Hard to leave this cute family behind as we took off to begin our trek on to Jackson:
Love them so much.
