Ah, the joys of boys + Six Flags. Will was *thisclose* to being 42" without shoes, which made it impossible for him to ride some cool water coasters. He was, however, tall enough to ride the land coasters, and he surprised us all by riding Greezed Lightnin'. Henry and Sam did a great job and were real troopers, especially in light of the fact that both felt crummy at one point or another. We shall do it again! Rock and Roll!
The boys also got a kick out of spending the night at our place. They played with Melville and Eric showed them the legend that is the original Nintendo Entertainment System. Q-bert. Mario 1, 2, and 3. Jeopardy. Duck Hunt. You know you played them all, and subscribed to Nintendo Power magazine. Don't lie.
Aunt Stessi pulled Will's wiggly tooth, and thankfully, the Tooth Fairy found her way to our place. Teeth are fetching about $3 a pop now, btw....
