amazing amusement parks

recently, we have made the rounds again with our passes to local amusement parks.  we ventured out to disneyland for my brother's birthday towards the end of april.  it was fun.  logan is not a big fan of rides so i have to choose wisely.  he went on small world and the steamboat.  he didn't care for small world this time but fell asleep on the steamboat.  at least we have that ride to go on together.  ha!  ha!
all smiles
our neice emily
way to go em!  you're smiling too!
a little scared on small world
"oh, uncle chris!"
the birthday boy
"what's going on?"

(emily is not so sure)
it always ends this way
sacked out
all 3 of them at the same time!

chris, logan, and myself went to legoland with our passes the week prior to disneyland.  i love that place.  logan can't really go on much right now but we have fun walking around the beautiful park.  we saw a firefighter show for the first time.
legoland is 10 years old this year
i remember it being built in 1999, hoping one day 
i'd have a son to take there.
maybe that's why i love going there so much.
(and that it's a beautiful and clean park)
logan loves legoland too!
so does daddy
"let's go guys!"
watching the firefighter show
"whoa!"
"look out!"
my concerned little guy
"it's okay now!"
checking out the giant lego firefighter
the end of another great day

towards the beginning of april, chris, logan, and i spent a day at the san diego wild animal park.  we hadn't been there in awhile.  it was logan's first time going there.  he enjoyed looking at all of the animals.
the family
trying on hats
hanging with mom
a view from the bench we were resting on
(i forgot how much walking you do here!)
animals in "africa"
"great idea hon!"
"hmm. . ."
"i love this place too!"
"hi mom!"
"so. . what are we eating today?"
"really, put the camera away"
"check out my new hat!"
looking at animals with daddy
asleep again
i'm seeing a pattern here

What fun. I've got to figure a way to get out there so the kids and I can go to Legoland with you. They would really love it.
