I love my brother. He is definitely a yellow personality. The boy lives for fun! So he's been dying to go to Wild Waves and Enchanted Villiage, an amusement park here that has water slides on one half and regular roller coasters and stuff on the other half. He decided he wanted me to go with him, and Jesica told me that she would watch the kids for me for the day if I would go, just to get him to be quiet about it! :) It sounded like a great deal to me!
So on the 8th we headed off to be kids again! It really was a lot of fun, after I got over the mom reflex to panic over where my kids were every 2 seconds! We went early and hit up all of the non-water stuff first. One of the funniest moments of the day was getting kicked off one of the rides because Jeff was too TALL! For whatever reason, on the "Ring of Fire", you need to have two people per seat. The seats are only about 18 inches wide, and even for my legs, my knees were touching the seat in front of me. The only way Jeff could fit his legs was to sit dead center on the seat and spread his legs out to the side. Needless to say, this prevented anyone from being able to sit with him. After pointlessly trying to argue with the teenager running the ride that there was no good reason why you had to have two people per seat, we just laughed it off. The same thing happened on another ride as well...maybe this was the fates trying to tell us that we are too big to be playing like kids...nah!
The day really was a lot of fun, and I was just reminded of how much I love my brother. I never would have guessed it when I was growing up, but he really has become one of my very best friends!

Awww Good Old WIld Waves! Don't give those teenage ride operators too much garbage.....I was one of them once. Nah...I take that back. Give them all the garbage you want!!! But I must say I never had to turn away people for being too tall, only for being too short.
