Lagoon

At the beginning of summer I promised the kids

we would go to Lagoon sometime this summer.

Well you can't break a promise like that,

especially for my deprived kids who have

never been. So today we finally made a day of it!

I took the two older kids, while Quinn entertained

Ash and Nalu in easier ways. It was a LONG day

but here are a few highlights from our adventure.

I was surprised at how much convincing

it took to get these two to get a coaster ride.

Kaipo especially! As crazy and fearless

(or so I thought) as he is, again and again

I had to convince him he was brave enough

and that it WOULD BE FUN!

We never got on any rides that went

upside down, but a few of their favorites were:

Bombora, the Bat and THE Roller Coaster.

We also spent A LOT of time at Laguna Beach.

I probably could have saved LOTS of $$ and just

gone to cherry hill or somewhere else to swim and

ride slides. But I don't think that compromise could

have been made.

When these two aren't arguing and irritating

each other to death, I can tell they actually are

becoming GREAT friends!
I LOVE IT!!

I got many thumbs up, hugs and thank you's for

such a fun day. I definitely think it was a

GREAT memory made! These two will

be talking about this day for quite some time.

Nothing better than making your kids beam

and just soo very happy!

first attempt

I made my first attempt at a diaper cake,

for a friend having a baby shower tomorrow night.

Another friend and I decided to go in on a gift together.

She fully admits she isn't a crafty person at all,

and not that I am really either, but occasionally

I am up for a little challenge.

Ame helped me and 100 diapers later (and a few

hidden accessories)....

I am pretty happy with the results?!
