The Rites of Summer

There are always those things that you do every summer without fail. We go to the zoo go swimming at the surf and swim eat dinner at the fair and go to Lagoon. Because it has gotten to be so expensive we only go to Lagoon once a year when Coca Cola has their company Lagoon day. The company pays and the employees get in at a very reduced price and they provide lunch for the families. The kids look forward to this every year and lucky for us this year we convinced my sis and her family to come with us. It made for a fun day of riding rides and spending some quality time together.

We were very lucky this year the weather, which has been so hot, was actually really nice. Lagoon was way crowded which made riding some of the cool rides hard but I think we all had fun. Meemer and her family are always fun to do things with and it gave Ty someone to ride on the rides with. Bee loves to hang out with her cousins and with Fussy along it is nice to have lots of hands to help out.

It was really funny to see Meemer, Big D, Chilly, Harry and Ty racing to get back on the tidal wave ride after ride, it was late enough that the crowds were gone and they basically would ride the ride, get off and then race around to get back on before the next ride started. I rode twice in a row and got sick, after five in a row they all looked a little green.

Thanks sis for coming and lets make a date to go again next year.
