A Season of Six Flags

The kids are already on Spring Break, so I convinced my brother to use one of our free tickets that come with season passes to come with us. It wasn't hard to convince him:)



This was the first ride we went on. We thought how fun it would be to go on the spinning balloon ride...except these spin a little too fast for Kate and Addison's taste. Once they got going, they both freaked out. Kate kept crying "I want to go home!" 

This was Kate before the ride started. I didn't get an after picture because she was glued to me in fear.


 We then decided to go on the carousel to hopefully help the twins get over their fear of rides that had now set in. They wouldn't ride on the animals, but we did sit on the bench.

 What was nice about six flags is that within close proximity there are things for all the kids to do. When the older ones wanted to do something the little ones (mostly the twins) didn't, it was easy to still stay all together.



I'm glad we have season passes because there is still a lot of things we didn't get to do. There was also a lot of things they wanted to do multiple times but we didn't. It wasn't crowded at all and we walked on almost everything.

Touching the sting rays
Waiting for the sea lion show. Bailey didn't like my arm around him:)

Nathan still loves me:)

Emma was picked to be in the show and touch one of the sea lions.

These were the only kids who would pose with the characters.

Nathan loves any ride that goes high.
Addison decided to conquer her fear and go on this ride. Emma was the awesome big sister who went with her to keep her from getting scared:)

At the end of the day, Bailey, Emma and Nathan wanted to do the monsoon raft ride. I told them they could do it right before we left because they would be too cold to stay after that. As you can see from the picture not only was it not busy that day but no one else wanted to get wet on a ride in April when it was 5 p.m. in the evening. Nathan insisted on sitting in the front!

Soaked kids but they said it was so fun!
