Knott's Berry Farm

We all spent the day at Knott's yesterday. We had got some free tickets and had to use them before the 5th. The five of us went, along with Auntie B and grandma & papa. The kids had a blast and went on a big roller coaster for the first time. It's called Sidewinder. Basically it is four round cars and as the cars go around the track each individual car spins as well. It is crazy fun! They happen to have video feeds on your cars so we spent an obscene amount of money to get them. Jason should have them up on YouTube in a couple days and I will post the links. The one of Chloe is just priceless. When I put the girls to bed last night the last thing Gwynne said to me was "Thank you mommy for taking me on the fast roller coaster." I didn't get a thank you from Chloe for that one, but she did say that the little roller coaster in Camp Snoopy was her favorite.

Connor couldn't go on too much, but we did get him on the big steam train they have and he loved it. If he was able to sit up on his own there was more he could have tried. But he had a fun time just being out and around all the fun. Even though Snoopy scared the hell out of him within the first 5 minutes of being at the park. LOL! So he didn't get in the pic, we whisked him off to calm him down while the girls took a picture.

We were disappointed to find out that the stage coach was not running on Sat. Knotts was still doing their Halloween Haunt. The park closes early and transforms during Halloween, and they have 6 or so mazes set up through out the park, and some of them were on the stage coach route. We were really excited about Chloe seeing this, but maybe next time.

I was amazed at some of the bigger rides the girls pointed to and wanted to go on. But we only made the 42" height requirement, most of the bigger rides you had to be 48" or taller. So next year we may not have any problems.

Below is a slide show of some pics Jason took, my sister as several really cute ones as well. Once she gives those to me I will put them up also.
