Valleyfair 2012

Yesterday we went we some of Ryan's family on our annual Valleyfair trip (so far we only make it there twice/year and that is plenty for the kiddos). That said, we spent TWELVE hours going up and down, round and round!! 
Yes, TWELVE!!!

Sidney is at the age where she adores rides and could go on them for days in a row without getting bored. She went on the same ride multiple times in a row and giggled the entire time. At one point, she was mid-ride and yelled to me "hey mom, next I'm going on that ride", giving me a point. Seriously, did she just plan out her next ride while still going up and down!? That's my girl :) 


 Her and Paxton were inseparable all day long. She simply loves him. Thankfully Hudson was willing to switch strollers to allow Pax/Sid to sit together in the double while he rode solo in our single. It could have been a long day of fighting otherwise, considering all three were without naps. 


These two, however, not so inseparable. 


Going into the day, I knew Regan was now tall enough to ride all the big kid rollercoasters. Growing up, I had something called Forced Fun; we tried everything once. From Star Wars movies, to Monster Truck rallies to WWF cage-matches (yes, I'm that old), to rollercoasters. Had to try it. And now, so does Regan :) 
So with some prep work, and a little coaxing, Regan agreed to try the White Roller first. We headed towards the line and she said "I want to ride with Logan!"; whatever got her on the ride, I didn't mind. 
Just look at her eyes!! She was sooooo scared! 
Turns out, she LOVED it just as I expected. She proceeded to go on every coaster and her favorite, by far, is the Corkscrew! Guess that girl loves the loop-d-loop as much as her mama!


Regan wasn't the only one who liked Logan to ride with her...Sidney had so much fun with Logie!

Awesome idea Jamie....yes, it does look like they are at Hooter-land.


 What trip to Valleyfair is complete without a spendy face painting!? We had a great day, thanks again!
