BUSCH Babies!

This week our family and the Johnsons went to Busch Gardens Theme Park in Williamsburg, VA and it was GREAT! This is the first time we've been there and it was so fun. We cruised the whole park. We opened it up, and closed it down with the night fireworks. What a wonderful day!

It was great because we took the kiddies to a play area where there were plenty of kid rides, then Erika and I could leave the men with the kids and we rode the roller coasters!! We felt like we were in HS again! Screaming at the top of our lungs on loop-dee-loos! While some rides felt like it took off 5 years of our lives, it really just gave me day of youth back. I love that feeling of adrenaline, excitement, fear, experiencing a roller coaster sans the kiddos even for just a few minutes..wahooooo!!

Then Jonathan and Jeremy took a turn to ride the big roller coasters. Austin's face in one of these pictures describes how his excitement level was to ride the roller coasters there. Not. Austin is not what we call adventurous on the coasters. Or "Coaller Roasters" is what my kids call them. But he did enjoy himself and the kiddie rides.

We wrapped up the night with dinner of pizza and cokes and then the firework display. Ash konked out on J's head at the end of the evening during the fireworks. We had an AWESOME time there. Looking forward to Busch next year!!
