Dutch Wonderland











We spent Dan's only day off- out of what is supposed to be a 4-day break- at Dutch Wonderland yesterday.

We chose a God awful day for humidity and heat. But, Dan's friend from work and his wife and their sweet little boy, Maxwell, had asked us a few weeks ago if we wanted to go with them. And, so the guys had planned it for yesterday. Dan had just gotten back at 8am after a night of work, but off we went-- with a 3-soon-to-be-4 month old baby girl who hates even the shortest of car rides these days, a sleep deprived Dan, and two extremely excited little 'big' girls!

The heat was enough to make Dan and I want to leave after only about 5 minutes. But, we did have a good time and Madison and Faith of course love any and all amusement parks. These girls live for carousel rides, jump at the chance to meet any and all characters (whether they know who they are or not!), and can't ever wait to splash in the water sections. They loved it all. Until we got to Duke's Lagoon, their hair was soaked in sweat, but none of it seemed to bother them! The nursing rooms were very nice and private, and it came in handy with my little Breezer while the big girls got a snack with Dan. Beeba even rode her first train ride while napping. The scorching sun made us both nervous for Abrie, but we kept her in the shade and she actually did really, really well.
