Adventureland...one last horray!

Took the girls to Adventureland this past weekend in Des Moines, Iowa. We had a great time, despite the whining standing in LONG lines. It was a great weekend to celebrate birthdays and our last weekend before Addison heads off to kindergarten!!





The weather was great. We got to the park before it opened and wanted to take full advantage of our time together and our time there. We only had hotel reservations for one night (which was Friday), so we were eading back to Omaha after a LONG day playing!



In the car on our way to Adventureland! They were soooo excited!


Waiting patiently to get into the park. We were there about 25 minutes early (on purpose)!
Ella would ride anything we put her on! she LOVED it all!
Riding the Ladybugs.
Some of the few smiles while waiting in lines!

Infant Boat Races - look at that smile on Ella's face!

The Raging River - we waited in lone OVER an hour just for them to tell us Ella was "to little"! Not happy were we or her!! That was a LONG line of waiting and the whining was kind of out of control!


Up a big hill, down a big yellow slide all in an innertube and they didn't even get wet!
Adventurland Bay was SO crowded it wasn't even fun to be there. They had a swim up bar in the pool - crazy!
We ended the weekend in Omaha at the zoo and had a terrific time! Could not of asked for a better weekend! We made tons of memories and had lots of laughs!

What a great family way to spend the last weekend before school begins. Glad you all had fun. Sounds like Ella may be your daring one :-)
