Ringin' in the New Year

The weather was beautiful on Saturday,sunny and 75; so we decided to do something fun for New Years. When Thad got home from work, we gathered up the kids and headed off to Six Flags. We are so lucky to have such a fabulous park so close to our house (just 20 min. away).
Ashley is just big enough to start riding some of the "good" rides. Here she is riding her first big roller coaster! She loved it and we went twice in a row (once with Thad and once with me). We had a great time walking around the park while she rode some of the other kiddie rides. Austin was such a good sport and was happy just hangin' out in the stroller.Thank you Sousa Family (Thad's partner) for the season passes! We are so excited to alot this year!
We were also lucky enough to receive passes to Sea World from the other dentist that Thad has been working with. We upgraded the passes to season passes and now can enjoy it all year long. We enjoyed riding the carousel, roller coaster, seeing Sesame Street characters, watching excerpts from Polar Express in 4-D (complete with vibrating seats, fans, and squirts of water), and we loved watching the Nutcracker Themed dolphin show. Here are some pictures from our visit:
