Six Flags Pictures...finally!

Well, I'm only a day and a half or so late! haha

We went to homeschool day at Six Flags with Al, Stacey, and their kids - Savannah & Talon. Stacey is the lady who sings (wonderfully, I might add) with Praise In Motion and Savannah does Sign Language with Faith.

Here's T and Nathan one our first ride...the trolley ride to the park! lol


Faith, Talon, & Savannah before any rides - notice how the hair is still fixed! ;-)


Nathan & T walking to the Scream Machine


Stacey & Savannah at lunch...I might get hurt if Stacey saw this on the web! shhhh :-D


Nathan in a crazy hat...a couple of ladies were wearing these "fuzzy" hats and asked Nathan to take a picture of them. He grabbed a hat and took a picture of them while he, too, was wearing one...makes for great blackmail!


Faith & Myself. I had leaned over to talk to her and Mom, with the camera in hand, said, "Freeze!"


Notice the uneaten Lay's lol ....definitely lunch!


I was playing peek-a-boo with Dad while in line for the Scream Machine - and he caught me! It did help the time pass quicker while waiting...


Here is Mom's game of peek-a-boo...but I caught her with rabbit ears slightly tall for her height - not that she's short or anything! haha


Here's the Dejavu...stuck! Ok, T and Nathan rode Superman - something I wanted to ride but was to...~clears throat~ shall we say....well, it was just too early to ride any coasters yet. So, they rode it first then I had plans to go back. Well, we went back to ride it a little later and as we top the hill we see it stopped in mid-track and one of our friends who was about to board said it was stuck...and the kids in it probably wouldn't be down for another hour or so. It was rumored that half of the parents were laughing while the other half was going to maintainence and complaining...well, as it seemed to turn out it was the Dad half of the bunch that was laughing, "oh, Charlie, you've had this coming for a lllloooonnngggg time!" while the other half - you can guess which half - was at the maintenance booth. haha Needless to say, I didn't get to ride Superman this trip.


The Acrophobia is the "tower" that takes you way into the air - like, higher than every single roller coaster, Goliath included - and drops you at 65 MPH at a 10 degree tilt. It makes it feel like a free-fall or something. Dad rode it once (he's the one waving on the right) and said that was it for him!


Here's Tim, Me, and Faith riding the Acrophobia once again...Everyone but Dad loved it!


We're dropping straight down....


T & Nathan walking back from Goliath. T was holding up her phone and I was so confused. Then she told us her story...She had put her phone in her pocket for the first time - she gave it to Nathan all the other times, to put in his pocket. Well, when the ride was over she reached down to get her phone and it wasn't there. She goes and asks the guy what she should do. He responds that they were going 75 MPH and at speeds like that the phone would be just a bunch of pieces after hitting the ground, but she could go and file a report just in case. They call Mom (from Nathan's phone) and tell her what happened. Amazing Mom has the bright idea to call it and see what happens. It rings and goes to voicemail. A few minutes later a lady calls back and says she has the phone. Evidently, her kids had been playing in a grassy area under the coaster and they heard it ringing and called the number back when they got it...how astounding is that?


T & I did get rescued by two superheros - Batman & Robin - but our victory picture was taken before our "heros" were able to recover from their huge ordeal. :-D I never saw my true superhero....Superman! I looked and looked, but he was no where to be found. Guess I'll have to continue to wait on him to come save me! lol Next trip to Six Flags I'll search high and low once again!

Well, hope those pictures were worth the wait! I'll post about our Mother's Day soon! Have another great story for later! :-)
