Happy 1st Birthday, Micah!!!: Schlitterbahn Fun

We had a great time at Schlitterbahn this year. Each year, Ryan's family plans a trip there and we are blessed to go and stay in the park and enjoy the rides. This was Jonas' second time to go, but his first time to actually enjoy some of the activities. He's still too young and small to do any rides, but he and his cousin, Rory had a great time in all of the kiddie parks. He especially loved going down some of the little water slides. He went down one slide in particular about 20 times in a row....not kidding. He really liked climing up the steps, rolling over onto his belly, then counting to 3 before he would slide down. Then, he'd jump up to go again.

He also learned, up close and personal, what a train is. To say that the trains pass by our rooms...is a mild understatement. They are practically on top of our rooms as they "pass by." The first time one went by, it kinda scared him, however, we started to take him down to the end of the rooms so that he could see them and wave. He would say "choo choo" everytime one would come and go...and in between them, too.

We had a great time with the family...hanging out, eating deliciously cooked meals, celebrating birthdays, playing in the park, and of course a little shopping. What a way to spend the summer!

Happy Birthday, Kallie Lynn
