Caden's last day of school was Thursday, and he is officially a first grader. I know every single mom says it, but I can't believe my baby boy is so . . . big. And smart, and funny and sweet.
His friend Joey came over for a last day of school ice-cream celebration
The next day we drove to Santa Claus, Indiana to Holiday World with the Johnson family. We started at the water park, but the kids were freezing between rides so we quickly moved on to the rest of the park.
Here he is walking up the hill the last day of school

Caden, Marina and Finn waiting in line
Here are Damon and Marina during a really cool show. It was about diving throughout the decades and one of the performers dived over 80 feet! I had to close my eyes for part of that because I so nervous for him. Seeing someone die at Holiday World just didn't seem like a good time to me :)
Look Mom - no hands! (on a baby ride!)
Marina loves to copy bub-bub.
This ride was a kiddie version of the "drop zone" Caden had two different looks of fear - one when he was shot up into the air. . . .
and one coming back down . . .
The kids fell asleep after about 5 minutes in the car
We took the interstate home and it was SO boring. Damon and I thought this cloud looked like an alligator. Yes, we were that bored.
Caden was a little nervous to try some of the rides, but once we convinced (bribed) him to go on, he loved them all. I used to love roller coasters and any other thrill ride, but I have to admit that I am becoming quite a wimp in my older age. I can honestly say that I "want" to ride these rides, but my body just doesn't cooperate . . . . my stomach churns, and my head hurts from all the rattling. Sometimes getting old really sucks!
After being called a wimp over and over, I agreed to ride Holiday World's version of the "Drop Zone". It was as bad as I remembered.
