Kings Island

Phillip is on vacation this week, so we took the opportunity to spend some time with our family. We headed to Cincinatti on Sunday and stopped at Charles and Jennifer's for a cookout. The cousins had a great time playing together; it was so nice to see them spending time together. On Monday morning, Nana, Pop Pop, and Mimi met us at Kings Island. We spent the first half of the day at the water park, and after naps and dinner we headed out for some rides. Lofton loves just about any ride that he is tall enough to ride; in fact, he thought that many of the rides that he loved last year were too "baby". Landon rode the cars on Monday morning and loved them, but after that he refused to ride anything but the Merry Go Round, which he rode at least fifteen times while he pet the horse the entire time. Phillip and I got to ride some rides too, and I am proud to say that I survived the park's newest roller coaster- The Diamondback. It was a lot of fun. We shut the park down Monday night, and I wasn't sure that I wanted to take advantage of my two day pass, but Tuesday we did it again. We met Charles, Jennifer, and the girls for round two. I thought we'd only stay until lunch, but the weather was perfect and the lines were short so we stayed until 5:00 when Lofton fell asleep riding the train.

It was a great time, and we all are exhausted; in fact, Landon has been asleep for three hours.
