"To you women of today who are old or young, may I suggest to you that you write, that you keep journals, that you express your thoughts on paper. Writing is a great discipline. It is a tremendous education effort. It will assist you in various ways, and you will bless the lives of many-now and in the years to come, as you put on paper some of your experiences and some of your musings"

Lagoon: Merry Christmas





I'm not going to lie...I really like Lagoon. Its almost like Christmas. Things I love: I love it when Conner says, "mom, that ride almost made me pee my pants." I love it when Conner says, "Mom, I need a nose mask because that ride makes my nose run." I love it when Lilly gets excited that she is tall enough to go on a big-kid ride. I love it when Max's eyes pop out when he rides the Tidal-wave. I love the smell of fried food. I love to eat the cotton candy, corn-on-the-cob, slurpees, funnel cake, and pretzels. I love to visit Pioneer Village just for the ice cream- ((however, I was a little disappointed this year at the ice cream shop because it smelled like "fart." Maybe thats because 4 teenage boys were manning the place)).

My favorite rides at Lagoon:
Tilt-a-Whirl....oh, baby! We rode this one several times in a row. iF you can get it to spin just right, it will take your breath away. I love it. Im totally dizzy at the end but I'll do it again and again.
Flying Aces: That one is whimsical. Just like it
Rollar Coaster: A classic and it makes you want to pee your pants
Wild Mouse: We have a love/hate relationship. I love the thrill but it freaks me out at each turn. You know what I mean.
Tidal wave: Its fun and my whole family can go together at once. That one makes my tummy tickle
