An Amusing Adventure!

After a three-year break, my family just couldn't stay away.  We made the hour trek to a local amusement park.

Mase was our official tour guide.

  My oh-so-shy daughter Evie was meeting her best friend for the day.  So, as expected, when Evie saw her friend, she frowned and nearly ran the other way! 

It only took THE ENTIRE DAY for Evie to warm up to her bff.  But in the end, they were best buddies again.  

Early on, Dax had only one mission--a stroller breakout!

When I obliged, he was temporarily stunned by his freedom and even posed for a photo.

Then took off!

And decided to join another family. 

Later, he was also caught stealing drinks.

Here's a random bad picture of my husband immediately after he asked me in a panicked voice, "Where did we put the backpack?"  It wasn't hard to find.  Note the location of the backpack. 

Also missing?  Mase.  

He followed his Dad to a ride, instead of staying with me and I didn't see him go!  Mase was only displaced for about sixty seconds, but I think I aged another year!

Now onto a lovely shot of how Dani spent her first big roller coaster experience.

And finally, our adventure wouldn't be complete without a scuffle.  Evie won a cheap-looking red shark.  The cheap-looking red shark then became the coveted possession of the night.  Evie happily played keep away.  

Mase did not play so happily. 

The end.
