GIRL'S DAY OUT!

Saturday Christine (Parker's little sister) and I had a girl's day out at King's Dominion amusement park! We had so much fun together and really enjoyed time without the kids. Christine and I get along great and always find things to laugh about. We were there for 10 hours and figured we were walking/standing for at least 9 of those hours. The lines for the big roller coasters were about an hour each, but worth it. We had fun in line, talking, people watching, and freaking out about the rides. We must've been bad luck because THREE of the roller coasters we were in line for had "temporary delays" while the mechanics came and fixed stuff. SCARY! We rode the Intimidator 305 which is 305 feet in the air and goes 94 mph. It was crazy, we both kinda blacked out! We came home stinky, sweaty, blistered feet, and exhausted but we had an awesome day. Oh, and did I mention the DELICIOUS strawberry italian ices and the funnel cakes? YUMMY! Thanks to my wonderful husband for watching the boys ALL day, without a car! Love you babe! And thanks to Christine for a VERY entertaining day!!!

Here we are when we first got there... Devouring our funnel cakes...We asked this guy to take a picture in front of the Volcano sign because it was our favorite roller coaster, but apparently he didn't understand we wanted the sign IN the picture...So we asked someone else to take one, we LOVED this ride...Here it is, the Intimidator 305! It goes SOOO high!!!
Yay for having Christine here, it is SO wonderful! The boys are in heaven and, let's face it, so am I! =) Love you sis!!!
