Vacation

We had such a great time on our vacation. Mikayla loved all of the adventure involved in playing at a water park! She was very timid at first, but by the last day...she was literally diving right in! I can't wait to see how she does in our pool this year.

It was also a good time visiting my grandparents. They enjoyed having Mikayla there, and she enjoyed having an extra Mom Mom and Pop Pop for a week. We spent the beginning of the week missing Daddy and trying to talk him into joining us at the end of the week. All of the coaxing paid off too! Matt came to join us at the end of the week. It was fun for me to show him where I have spent so many of my most memorable summers.

Matt is not a roller coaster person, but I dragged him on a big one to make him try it. I paid for that. He left the park with a major headache and went strait to bed when we got home. Needless to say, he didn't try any more rides that I talked about. He did ride several smaller rides with Mikayla. He also tried everyone's favorite ride...The Phantom Flyers. We all love the feeling of that ride and it's not too crazy for Matt to try. He liked it so much that he took Mikayla on with him. I wasn't sure she would like the ride though. It was a little big for her, but she ended up laughing the whole time.

On the trip home, we were able to stop in and see some friends from waaay back. It was a neat time to fellowship with old friends and their children. Although it was a fun time of being away, I am glad to be home for a few weeks to just relax. We leave again to camp at the end of the month, but then our summer is pretty much free. Maybe we will be able to spend that "free" time moving into a house....if we could only convince Matt.
