We had an awesome day at Six Flags back in August! Noelle, Anna Kate, and I hung out all day and then Mike and Rose joined us after work. The girls won free passes for doing 6 hours of extra reading during the spring at school. They were so proud to have earned their day of fun all on their own! It was my first time to go to Six Flags since being a mom, in at least 10 years. I had a blast, and the whole day felt so awesome to get to experience! <\/p>\n

We went on a random weekday and had a lot of the park to ourselves. It was still hot, but we love the Texas heat!   <\/p>\n

We rode everything in Bugs Bunny Boomtown several times!<\/p>\n

I let the girls each buy one sweet treat during the day. Noelle bought a lollipop, which, if you know our family, is definitely a rare treat! Anna Kate bought a bag of sour Skittles (People say what?). We all shared their treats all day\u2014It was fun! We also pressed a lot of pennies for souvenirs! Anna Kate loved watching the pressing machines!<\/p>\n

This ride scared me to death! Anna Kate kept slamming on the brakes, and I kept bracing myself to be hit by the person behind us (if you get rear-ended in real life, you never forget it). It never happened because, fortunately, the people behind us were adults! <\/p>\n

We ate curly fries and rode around the park twice in the train to take a break during the afternoon. That was a great idea if I do say so myself!<\/p>\n

Did you know there are games you can play that guarantee a prize? Well, alright then\u2014So fun! <\/p>\n

\"IMG_1402\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Rose arrives on the scene. The big sisters won her a unicorn! Long crazy story, but we had to win that one\u2014And we did! <\/p>\n

\"IMG_1416\"<\/a><\/p>\n

They both gave her their little toys too, right off the bat, and the rest of Noelle\u2019s lollipop, and a superhero cape. Rose didn\u2019t know what was behind the gates of Six Flags, but with this kind of welcome, she was beyond excited, almost spaced out!<\/p>\n

Good times.<\/p>\n
