Our Story

Ben and I met in 1996, began dating in 1999 and married in 2001. Now 20 years and 2 children later, we have returned to where our life together began. Ben works for the Federal Reserve and I have the privilege of staying home with our two precious boys.

Six Flags

As part of the 600 minute reading club last year, Ethan earned a ticket to Six Flags. So, the week that we returned home from vacation was the last week of summer and he and Mommy had a special date day at Six Flags! He loves roller coaster, I don't. But we don't have a lot of pictures of our day because I was riding all of the roller coasters with my eyes closed! The things you do for your child!!

However, the kiddie area had some fin stuff that he played as well and I got a few pictures in that part of the park. He loved soaking everyone with the water blasters and he came off soaked, too!
The wagon wheel mini ferris wheel
 He "raced" boats and then we rode the swinging buckets and the Acme truck ride. Then he "played" some arcade games.
 As we were leaving Boomtown, we got to say hi to Daffy Duck!
After that, we headed over to ride Splashwater Falls and got completely soaked. Then Ethan drove the Hanson cars, we rode Superman Tower of Power, the Dahlonega Mine Train, the Great American Scream Machine, the Joker Fun Coaster, then stopped to have a drink to cool off. After taking a break, we rode the MindBender and Harley Quinn Spinsanity. There were a couple of other things that we wanted to ride but they were down for the day.

Before leaving, Ethan took a picture with the Batmobile. We had a terrific day together and he was so good all day! I loved spending this precious time with him even though it was doing something that was waaayyyyy out of my comfort zone.
We celebrated with breakfast for dinner at IHOP on the way home :-)
