lagoon 2011

The Bell family went to white trash Lagoon and of course loved it. Wes took a few days off of work for Halle's birthday and we were lucky enough to have Grandma Nimer in town. We had a pre birthday celebration and took the girls to Lagoon with Ryan and Tara. All Halle could remember from last year was a ride named lady bug bop that takes you up high and falls down quickly. She was terrified last year, but that was the first thing she wanted to do this year. So we took her and she was even more terrified. Even her little adorable cheeks were shaking every time the ride dropped. We didn't go on that ride again. The great thing about Lagoon are all the little kids rides that only the little kids can fit in. Halle felt like a big girl going on all the rides by herself.
I love when little kids actually think they are driving the cars. I'm sure we all thought the autopia cars at Disneyland were for real at one point.
The girls and dad. Can we retire yet and just do stuff like this all the time?
Bulgy the whale: always a good time
Grandma and Lily throwing out the peace sign. My those baby cheeks are delicious.

I think my favorite part of the day was watching Grandma and Halle ride the fishes. This is the one ride we made Grandma go on and it happens to be one where you get wet. She screamed the whole time...not Halle but Grandma. Halle still tells me about the ride when "grandma screamed like a little baby."
Ryan and Tara were so sweet to tag along with us while halle rode the kiddie rides most of the day.
When the Nimer family used to go to Lagoon many moons ago we would head to that old timey picture place and have our picture taken in old fashioned garb. Grandma convinced us all to do it this time and the results were hilarious. Before we even started Halle had picked out the dress she wanted and we was thrilled to be holding a frilly umbrella and Lily is our little pioneer baby.
Too much fun!
