We made our annual trip down to Six Flags last night and, with the PCP coming in at just a hair over 48”, a whole new world of thrill rides were ripe for the riding. We’ll bring the baby back in a couple of weeks but since it was just Mommy, Daddy and the big boy, we spent five straight hours riding the rollercoasters! 
The PCP was asleep in the car before we were out of the parking lot. And this morning I felt every second of my thirty-six years :-) xoxo
Spelling is Fun

We did happy hour at the pool Friday, girls night out Saturday, cooked out with friends Sunday, and Mexican with my family tonight. But… Read More
