Six Flags

We have talked about going to Six Flags since May. We take the girls most summers. It isn't Disney, but its close and fairly affordable and hey, Wes and I love the Roller Coasters! So Saturday, after the girls game they cheered at, we headed over to Atlanta to stay the night at our friends Chet and Cristy's house and then go to Six Flags on Sunday. We got there around 10:00 Georgia time and crashed the Frazier's house (not really!). Our girls played with their girls, Savanna and Peyton who are such sweet girls. We don't get to see them often enough but it was great to visit for a couple of hours before bedtime. Then we got up Sunday and (finally) found breakfast at a Cracker Barrell and then went to Six Flags. They guy in front of us in line to buy tickets was buying $4000 worth of tickets (no joke, I'm serious, $4000!) so it took forever to get ours! I always pick the wrong line, Murphys Law, right? We did get in the park eventually though and wasted no time getting to the rides. Logistically, we had to work out who would ride what with which kid and who would wait where with Ayden Claire and the stroller. Sounds fun, huh? It really was. Wes got to ride most of the roller coasters and I rode one of the big ones and the smaller one with Alyssa and a kiddie one with both girls. They had a blast. I even got Anniston on the wheelie with me this year! Alyssa chickened out after riding it the past 4 years with me. Ayden Claire was an angel and loved watching her sisters enjoy themselves. One of the highlights of the day was when Alyssa and Anniston got on a ride in Kiddie land and then got right back off before it started. We asked them why they didn't get to ride and they didn't know. Then I heard the employee say there was a snake in the bushes right by the ride! Yeah, we moved on quickly to the other side of the kiddie rides! We made a day of it and were exhausted by the time we left. The kids of course slept the whole way home so that was nice. It was a great little getaway!
