Lagoon

Last Saturday was Amos's work Lagoon Day.  We took Jace first thing in the morning.  We didn't really know what to expect because Jace didn't like rides at Chuck E. Cheese earlier in the year or this ride I put him in at Jiffy Lube.  Luckily, he seemed to enjoy himself.  I rode a jeep ride with him first.  He held on tight to me and kept saying, "Fast." Then we went on a pirate ship ride and a dragon roller coaster.  I don't think he liked the roller coaster, but he didn't cry.  After that, we decided to see if he would go on a ride by himself so we put him on a boat ride.  He really liked this ride.  He rode it again later in the day.  We also went on the carousel and the train in the morning.  Amos's work provided lunch so we ate lunch at a pavilion and then walked around Pioneer Village.  We decided to take him home for a nap.  After his nap, we took him to Cooper Hemphill's first birthday party.  We stayed for about an hour.  He got a balloon motorcycle from the clown. Then we took him back to Lagoon.  We rode the boat and train again with Amos's family (Lucian works at E-trade too).  A nice lady gave Jace a blow up bat that she won from a game but didn't want. Then we put him on a car track ride with Talan.  He did not like it when they put the seat belt on him, but once the ride started to go he was fine.  Amos wanted to put him on this airplane ride with Talan, but I thought it would be too scary for him.  He cried the whole time!  It was sad.  Then he didn't want to ride anything else the rest of the time, even the boats he loved.  He was tired and fussy so we got a small treat and then took him home for bed.  My brother came over after bed time to watch our baby monitor so we could go back and ride the big roller coasters for a date night.  It was really fun.  We rode the big roller coaster, The Spider, Wicked, Colossus, the sky tram (which I am scared of), Samurai, and The Rocket.  Unfortunately, after the Samurai I didn't feel too well.  Amos and I have noticed over the past year that we can't handle some motions like spinning without getting sick.  I guess it comes with age? Bummer for us. Overall it was a busy, hot, and super fun day!
