Busch Gardens

Saturday we decided to head down to Busch Gardens. The weather has been lovely here, and it was a great day to be outside. I heard there was a little snow up in Indiana this weekend...don't be jealous that I'm wearing shorts still!

Kevin - he is such a good sport. All you have to do is say "Kev - try this hat on" and he does it! I took a few pics of him sporting some cute hats.





Jackie Sue - these 2 pics are for you. As soon as I saw them, I thought about you and your butterfly garden. I think you should ask David to carve your bushes into butterflies :)


This picture pretty much sums up Lucy and Kevin. She could not stop staring at him this weekend and trying to get his attention. She smiled and giggled at him a lot.


Whenever we head to a theme park, we ask what is one thing everyone wants to do before we leave for the day. I picked the train ride, John picked seeing the monkeys, and Kevin picked going on Sheikra...with me. Because we try very hard to honor everyone's request, I didn't really feel like I could back out of the only thing he asked to do. Can I just say....OH MY! It was a little scary when they dangle you at the top of the big drop. I did survive though, and made it safely to the train ride. It's much more my speed! Am I getting old or what!?!


Kevin is a great big brother. And - he also made the honor roll last week! We're very proud of him!



Lucy was too busy people watching to even notice there were animals. She was a good sport too and exhausted by the end of the day!

Tell Kevin that we are so proud of him! Busch Gardens looks beautiful. I would have loved to see you screaming on that ride!

Not only is Kev good looking but a good sport too??? WOW-some lucky girl is going to have her a prize husband one of these days!! HMMM? What's the age difference between her and Kevin?? :-) JK!!! I loved getting to hold Lucy at the end of church last Sun. She was talking up a storm with Brennen, he said "See, she likes me the best" He will be a good daddy one of these years :-)
