Weekend of April 18th

One of my good friends, Stefany, had a couple of extra tickets to Six Flags in San Antonio. She was so sweet to invite Ashlyn and me! We drove to through the horrible rain Saturday afternoon and arrived in SUNNY San Antonio around 6:30pm. We ate dinner at a Mexican restaraunt. Then headed to the hotel. Ashlyn and Carey had a great time performing for us in the hotel room.
The girls woke us up bright and early as always, and we stayed in the hotel until 9:30. The park wasn't supposed to open until 10. I realized I didn't pack any sunscreen so we headed to Target to grab some. While we were there...the girls found some gorgeous sunglasses. I also bought a pack of gum. Ashlyn has never had a piece of gum. She has been chewing "Kid Gum" (aka Starburst candy) since she was 2. I have always told her she had to wait until she was 5 before she could have "Mommy Gum". Well...I made it almost till she was 5. I gave her a piece out of my pack...and away she chewed! She handled it very well. I made her spit it out about an hour later before we went on a ride. Here is a picture of her with her FIRST PIECE OF GUM in the car on the way to Six Flags.
When we arrived at the park...Ashlyn noticed there really were 6 Flags. I thought that was quite ironic as I've never paid attention to that before.
Ashlyn was a blast! She rode on sooo many rides...even one that went upside down. I went on quite a few of them with her....but got to a point where I felt like I was going to lose my lunch...so Stefany rode with her, while Carey and I stayed and rested. (Thank You Stefany!)
Here are a few pictures of our great trip. I CAN'T wait to go back!!!!
