Amusements

Some of my favorite memories as a kid are from an annual summer trip to Six Flags with my dad.  I love how Palmer is also a thrill seeker and likes roller coasters and water attractions as much as I do.
We went to Hawaiian Falls with Aunt Amy and Coleton.
Although Palmer wasn't tall enough for the "big slides", he had fun in the kiddie area, on the children's slides, and in the lazy river.
On a very hot day, we went to Six Flags with Paw Paw, Aunt Amy, and Coleton.  Two weeks later, Palmer is still wearing his "36 inches tall" bracelet that indicated which rides he was tall enough to do.
Surpisingly, 36 inches gets you into a lot of rides: a ton of kiddie rides, the Conquistador, the log ride, Splashwater Falls, Roaring Rapids, the Mini Mine Train, and the tea cups.
Palmer is hopeful he will meet 42" next summer and tackle more of the bigger rides.  That's my boy.
Meanwhile, we will wait and see if Miss Grace is a fellow thrill seeker.  She took her first dip in the pool the other night.  It's a start...
