CBMI ~ Kentucky Vacation ~ Day 3...

Wednesday is a always a little breath of fresh air because class is only 1/2 a day...


While I was in class Wednesday morning, they did a tour at the Toyota plant...


May sound crazy but reality is she will be driving before we know it...we better not blink twice!!!




The kids didn't love the tour but as Matt said, it was free and entertained them that morning.


As soon as I got out of class, we hit the road to Louisville (about an hour away) to spend the afternoon at Kentucky Kingdom.  Matt found a great deal on two day passes so the plan was to do the amusement park Wednesday afternoon and they would go back on Thursday and do the water park. Little did we know it was all together, and we could have done both.  O'well...they were good sports about not having their swimsuits and were completely happy just riding rides on Wednesday afternoon.


Their very first ride was the free fall...it went straight up I cannot even tell you how high and then dropped.  Cooper was all smiles at first...


Not so much afterwards...needless to say, he didn't ride again...


Cooper needed a little time to recover from his first ride so we headed to the kid section while Anna Lauren and Matt rode a really big roller coaster...


Cooper drove this old car and took his Daddy and Mommy for a ride...


We had the best chauffeur...


Everyone was ready to take a little rest so we stopped and watched the sea lion show...


Cooper was LOVING the show...




Hands down their most favorite ride...cannot count how many time they rode this roller coaster!!!


This picture sums up their day...we were having so much fun!!!


Cooper and I taking a little break while Anna Lauren and Matt rode another big roller coaster...


He loves some of the big rides, but he isn't too big to ride some of the small rides too...


As you can see, the park was not crowded...you could pretty much just walk up and get on any ride without waiting.  They only had to wait a few minutes for a couple of the bigger rides.



Cooper went back and forth, but he decided to ride the swings at the last minute...


See why he went back and forth...they were SO high!!!  After the swings, they rode a couple more rides until the park closed.  We grabbed some Panera Bread for dinner on our way back to the hotel and all crashed quickly after we got back.  Fun afternoon, but we were tired!!!
