Another Fun Weekend

Well this weekend was pretty eventful. Ethan was exhausted by the time it was over. We had pioneer days with the church and then we went to Wild Adventures. We have season passes and so thought we should use them. We were only there a few hours but enough time to have fun, wear Ethan out and get a nice sunburn. Ethan enjoyed the rides and has a new favorite. The BIG boat ride where it has the bridge people stand over to get the big splash. Yeah well Ethan went on it about 8 times and kept saying "do it again do it again!" I was terrified when he said he wanted to go on it and then Danny and his mom decided to take him. I kept praying that my skinny little boy wouldn't fly out on the drop down. But they held him in tight, got soaked and had a blast. Ethan was all grins! Then we each had to stand on the bridge 4-5 times so he could get splashed. We were DRENCHED but it felt good in the heat. We are defiantly going again soon. Nana and Papa Browne get a weekend ready cause you guys get to come with us next and use your passes too!

My little artist.

Some of his work. He painted, he colored and he glued it all.

Pioneer Days.

Ethan still LOVES the slip-n-slide and they won him over by having it at Pioneer days.

They had just mowed the grass so many of the little kids seemed to enjoy getting wet then rolling in the grass. Yep Ethan even had grass in his underwear. BTW he is fully potty trained during the day. Didn't even have an accident at Wild Adventures!

Ethan's Bike decorated for the kids little bike parade. Ethan thought it was so neat to be in a parade. He still talks about his bike being pretty. :)

My little monkey. Both these bananas started as mine and of course he saw it and had to have it. Don't worry I did steal one back but not before he shoved both in his mouth.

I couldn't get the shot of them in his mouth with him facing me but yes both bananas are in his mouth.

One of these Elephants was actually a star in the Jungle Book movie (now retired).

Feeding a few. Ethan thought the goats licking the food of his hands was hilarious.

And the big water ride. That made me a wreck the first time. Figuring he'd end up in tears. I was wrong.

After the 8 or so times Ethan went on this ride and the many times we all spent on the bridge here is a scary pictures of the wet family.
