Patience is not about how long someone can wait... It's about how well they behave while they wait.

Silverwood

A few weekends ago we took the kids to Silverwood Theme Park.  They once again had earned tickets through a reading program at school. 

They each picked a roller coaster they most wanted to ride and rode it together.   The first was the "Corkscrew" and Ben's pick.  There they are upsidedown in the front of the third car.


Myranda's pick was a wooden coaster called "Tremors".  David stood in the gift shop aiming the camera at a high window with a view of the big drop for 20- 30 minutes to get this shot.  The kids are in the front of the second car.


This is after the ride.  They would have ridden more roller coasters, but we really wanted to enjoy the water park more this year as the weather was nice and warm.


We went on several waterslides.  Some were solo some duo, and a new one where we all went on a big tube together, was my favorite.  No pictures of those though because the camera was in the locker staying safe and dry.

We do have some pics of the kids favorite water park fun... the wave pool.




If you get up this way and like water parks or roller coasters, Silverwood is the place to see.
