We went to the Carowinds Park today. It was great!
The park is water slides and amusement type rides and games in one big area. You are actually in North Carolina and South Carolina they have a sign that tells you. We mainly stayed in the water park today and rode the water slides and the waves in the wave pool.
I was introduced to dipping dot's Yummy ;) Oakly you would love these, they look like nerd candy's, but they are ice cream and wow it was YUMMY! I tried the mint chocolate. they have 6 flavours and I can't wait to bring the kids here when we come back we will all have to get different flavours so we can share.
will all love the first one and Avery the After the water we went on 2 roller coasters. The Whitewater Falls and Carolina Gold rusher. You Gold rusher reminded mom of the Train ride at Disneyland that you loved, it is definitely a hands up ride. WEE :0
Tomorrow is back to work day. We are trying to get ride of junk and clutter so we can have a garage sale on Saturday. We have gone through lots of stuff that you know you need to get done, but it is just nicer to have somebody there to help you do it and organize with you. Two brains think better than one.
I didn't write yesterday about James and the Mud Dabber (evil bug) When we were in the garden weeding James started to run around screaming, "It's on me, it's in me." I couldn't get the words out to help him, I was trying to laugh silently, to tell him to get his shirt off. Watching him do his dance in the field and out on the road he had me in stitches. He got his shirt off and through it on the ground stepped on it a few times and ran into the house. He did get bitten twice and they looked like little donuts on him. The bite marks were huge and it swelled up around that. Well while Tonya and I were having lunch on the deck talking about these bugs we didn't know about, one came by. Well I freaked it was circling around me so I got up and jumped over to the corner of the deck and it followed me while Tonya ran in to the house. It had me cornered on the deck and literately was staring me down. I can laugh now but to see this thing it is nasty. It has 2 stingers out of it's nose and the legs dangle down from it's body, Nasty!
Today we were waiting in the vehicle for Tonya to come and her window was rolled down the kids were all buckled in, and in came the "Evil Bug" I hightailed it out of the suburban, to try to get it out but with no luck. We got it out just as I was trying to roll up the window when it came back in again. It played in and out tag with us at least 6 times. Between James and myself I am not sure who was screaming more and I was truly laughing so hard that I was crying. It is really the "Evil Bug" AKA "Stalker" by James, and when you hear it buzz around you it is different than a Bee or Wasp.
Day 6!
Miss you all and love you ;0
