Six Flags Great Escape

By

Six Flags was having a pretty incredible deal going with their gold season passes for $6.65 a month ($80, but spread out over 12 months), so we decided to pick two up (kids 2 and under don’t require tickets).  We also picked up a photo pass since it was only $20 for the entire season and, surprisingly, the photo release terms are actually extremely consumer friendly.  We went up for the first time today.  Great Escape has over 20 rides for kids under 36 inches and quite a few walk through experiences that work well, so it seemed like it would be a good idea.  While Declan was a little impatient on the ride up, once we got there, he thoroughly enjoyed himself and came home all tired out from a long fun day.

I guess winter really was coming… even if it’s spring now…

But that’s ok, because I finally get to try out my snow suit!!!

All ready to go outside…
I’m not so sure about this… why is everything covered in white?
Seems safe enough over here by the car…
Maybe I’ll try stepping in this white stuff a little…
Hey, this is actually kind of fun…
I’m getting the hang of this…
I love being outside, even if it’s cold…
Lots of snow…
Where’d the driveway go?
Oops, I fell down…
Why’s all the white stuff on my hands now?
Ut oh, this one wasn’t much fun, but Mommy helped me out…
Can’t go walking in the street without Mommy…
Have to stay close…
Daddy shows me a snowball…
I don’t quite get how to make them yet though…
This whole outside in the snow thing is tiring…
But why isn’t there any snow under the stairs?
Ok, one last run through the snow before it’s time to go back inside…
