After MJ's baptism my sister and her kids stayed with us for a few days. We had such a good time. On Sunday we had a chocolate fountain that we pigged out on. On Monday we went to Lagoon with my brother and his kids, and then on Tues. we went to Hogle Zoo. It was so much fun having them stay a few extra days. The cousins LOVED playing with each other!
Lagoon
I didn't get quite as many pictures at Lagoon as I too was riding some of the rides.
Buddy HATED this ride. In fact they stopped it to let him off and then started it again.
However, he LOVED this ride. He would even ride it by himself, over and over and over and over again.
Waiting for his favorite ride with sister.
We had a tough time getting MJ to ride many of the rides. Daddy convinced her on some of them even though they were kid rides. That's okay though eventually she may want to ride more. Lil on the other hand was an adrenaline junky. She rode on Wicked and there was no stopping her after that. She loved all the big rides she rode on.
If you ever want to know what it feels like to be clothes inside a washing machine ride this ride.

Hogle Zoo:
These little displays they had, that I got pictures of throughout this post, are all made of Lego's. Really cool!
The polar bear was definitely one of the highlights of the trip. It kept making the same rotation in its routine and the kids would run back and forth trying to follow it. It was probably funner watching the kids more than the polar bear for me.
Buddy has the cutest and weirdest run.
Buddy would dance to the music, and then run off. Stop, dance, and then run again. Very entertaining!
I don't think I have ever seen the gorillas so active as they were this day. One ran right up to the window and then sulked in a corner. Another ran and banged on the wall. Then another banged on his chest like you always see in the movies. This area kept us busy and entertained for awhile for sure.
Ms M stole sisters gift shop toy as they were going potty. She didn't want to give it back either.
Buddy playing with his Hogle Zoo train. He didn't end up getting the jeeps like we wanted. But he loves his train.
This is how the kids were every night. Exhausted!
We had so much fun playing and being with family!
