School's Out!

 For our first official "Day out of school", I took Garrett, Caroline, LoLo and Emily on a short road trip to Busch Gardens!  Lots of schools in the area have to go through this week, so I figured the park might have less people than later on this summer.  Also, forecast was calling for 30% chance of isolated storms, which would lower the number of people at the park even more.  We have season passes, so it's not like a "make or break" thing for us if it rains.  We could just hang out in the funnel cake shop until a storm passed.  Luckily, we only had to put up with two five-minute sprinkles and that was it!  And with the cloudy weather came no sunburns and lower temps than usual.  Score!

I  LOVE all the stained glass in this place!  

Garrett was in trouble for an untidy chamber and Emily couldn't keep her mouth shut.

LoLo and Caroline....BFF

Yes, that is a very tall roller coaster.

Notice the complete lack of crowds in this place!

For the first hour, it honestly felt like we had snuck in the place!  There was only a dozen or so other people there!

Waiting so patiently for the older kids to get finished with the Griffin.

And we're spinning!  We're spinning baby!
