About a month ago, Joe's work had a company picnic at Heritage Square Amusement Park that included Unlimited ride passes. Unfortunately, it landed on a weekend he was out of town and that the boys had their games, so we were unable to go. Fortunately, the passes were good for any day at the park. So, a month later, we went to the park. It was the last day it was open and a little overcast, but not too cold, so we had little crowd to deal with. It was a great day.
It started with a spin around the pond in a paddle boat powered by Mom.
Dad got in on the fun with a dragon roller coster.
The boys both had a blast on the Flying Bananas. This one was ridden many times.
Patrick was there, too. He spent most of the time in his stroller, but I think he was still having fun.
We each took a turn on the go-cart track....
and Dad took the boys out on the bumper boats. The only scary moment of the day. They are inter-tubes with a motor in the middle of them that you use to steer. They made Daniel wear a life jacket but didn't put one on Josh. The boats did not look easy to control and the little 6 year old looked like he could flip it very easily. It made me very nervous to watch. But he got the hang of it and had a great time. They kept running into each other and ended up getting soaked!
The day ended with another trip around the pond, this time paddled by Dad. It was a great day and the boys keep asking to go back, so I think they enjoyed it, too.
