Holiday in the Park!

We traveled to Waco for my Dad’s work Christmas party---and low and behold~ Santa, himself, was there to greet us!

The next day, we headed to Holiday in the Park at Six Flags! I absolutely LOOOOOVE amusement parks and roller coasters. I have been dreaming of the day that I could take my kids to Six Flags and thanks to Auntie Lizzie, we scored a ridiculously sweet deal.

I can honestly say that everyone had such a blast! Even the adults!!! Now, it was NOT fun dragging the kids, kicking and screaming, out of the park because they wanted to ride more rides…I could have done without that! Ha.

It was a wee bit chilly, but hardly anyone was at the park! No lines on the rides = an incredible time! And I can proudly say that I now have FIVE roller coaster riders in the family!!! Daddy Joe will have to hold our stuff at each gate~ (wimp!). LOL.

 

The next day, was the North Pole Express in Grapevine on the Vintage Railroad! Something the kids have been looking forward to and talking about all year long!

Stay tuned for some Christmas magic…

Hi Suz, my name is Abby. I fell across your blog in school last week while typing in "multiples blog" on google. Hahaaha. I have been catching up starting with the oldest blog, to todays. Let me tell you, it was well worth the 10 hours it took me! I have learned alot. Me, alike you, enjoys to research and well..read blogs. Keep in mind Im a 16 year old junior in high school. I was so upset I was getting up to date, I wanted to keep reading more! But then you mentioned a tv show! You're gonna be taking up all of my free time! ;D But I left this initially to let you know how highly I think of you and your family. You're all such beautiful and strong people. You and Joe make the best parents Ive ever seen, hands down and I'm certain that all four of your kids will grow up to make a significant impact. Your gentleheartedness as a mother is very inspiring, I hope to continue to learn as much as I can through you guys.
*Don't turn into Kate Gosselin from the TV show, it would devastate me. ;D
THANKS AGAIN.
Abby,
