Today we had a much needed break at Lagoon Park. It is a spot from my childhood memories. We would go and it was a real treat. We would count down the days until we went and begged my dad to let us stay until midnight. It always seemed more magic at night with all the carnival lights on. It is here that I used to perform with Razz-Ma-Tazz, here where I lost my retainer (dad fished it out of the trash), here where I broke the record with Katie for 44 consecutive rides on the Tidal Wave. I have so many memories. The thing is all the rides are mostly the same. The fun house is gone, the tri-star gone, gravatron gone but my favorites... tilt a whirl and Tidal Wave-- still there:) I
love going with Marlene and kids. They hang on me kissing me and love to ride with me. Now I have an excuse to not ride the ones I don't care for because baby MK is too tiny. I was sad to see the missing pirates on my favorite. I hope they are undergoing some rehab of some sort and will reappear later in the season. We attempted to go last week but the church ran into a few snags and it took Scott's attention for the day. But today I got him all day. We had Arbonne Region meeting in the morning and then off we went. This time we did all get a tad dizzy. But it was still great to be together. It was fun. LOVE the kids and Marlene... and Karson for the hour we saw him. Tomorrow we get to have Elder Teran's homecoming:) Yipee. He is home!!! Homecoming are the BEST!!!

How fun. I have great memories of Lagoon too. The slide in the fun house was my favorite and the room with all the mirrors. I think they are both gone now.
Yes- that fun slide and the entire fun house is gone:(
