Busch Gardens

We took a much needed break from the yard cleanup & moving prep to take the kids to Busch Gardens for the day. We went with friends the Latteiers who have kids around our kids' age and had a lot of fun. It is a beautiful amusement park based on different countries in Europe-Italy, France, Germany, Scotland, Britain. The kids had fun and even went on some "scary" rides which is much better than the last time we went when David was 5 & Savannah was 3 -Savannah was too small for all but a few rides & David was too chicken so we basically walked around the park & went home. This time we went on rides, had lunch and enjoyed being together!

Sounds fun! It is always so much more fun when they get brave enough to go on the rides. We have had moments of carrying crying kids on rides and promising them they will love it. They always do and want to go again! I am sure you needed the break!

I can't believe you're still able to post these when you're packing up and moving in just a few days. Crazy girl!

What a fun day for you to have just before packing up and coming home. Those kids are adorable.

Ah...now I can respond to the post. What fun! I envy all the traveling and exciting things gotten to do over the last four years. Just don't end it all when you get here!

What a fun day! I never knew what was at Busch Gardens so it was really fun to see the pictures, and of course the kids make it look even better! Your little Benjamin is getting so big - they all are! You deserve a week away for all the work you've done lately! Good luck with the move.

Lots of fun. Hope you are wanting to do the Disney thing in a few years with us!
