The Flags!

I bit the bullet and did something I have not enjoyed since my single days...the kids and I became Six Flags SPH. For all you non-Flaggers, that's Season Pass Holders.

I told the kids this was an early Christmas present and just started driving. They had no idea what it was. When they saw the rides from the road and I exited there were so many squeals of excitement!

Our mission, which we chose to accept, is to take a Big Chair picture every time we come.

Daisy cracks me up in this picture with her hand to her chest. These two were kind of freaked out by the old creepy cartoon characters. Look how they're holding hands. So sweet.

 These two are the funniest antique car drivers.

This. Everybody's so happy to be going to Six Flags.

 This girl is awesome to ride the rides with! She faces her fears and goes on the rides she's scared of and screams bloody murder the entire time. SO FUNNY! She hates it when I laugh at her, but I can't help myself. I even tried to hide behind our drink cup so she couldn't see me, but it didn't help.

 This is the only trip that we failed our mission...no Big Chair picture.

This trip had ridiculously long lines. I waited an insane amount of time to get a snack while these guys rode a couple rides. Then we left. You can do that when you're SPH.

However, we did get our chair picture before we left.

After taking a couple months off, we were excited to get back!

Big Chair, we missed you!

About the time I had had enough and was on our last ride of the day, look who we bumped into! We hung out till closing with the Williams and the Stevens.

We started this day at Hurricane Harbour, but slipped on over to The Flags after it closed for some dinner and rides.

 This just happened to be the night I fulfilled a life-long desire--we got stranded on a ride! We were on Pandamonium.

 As you can see, we were right next to the end of the ride. But we were stranded on it for a bit until a special guy came to unlock the seats for us. And we got cups of water while we waited.

This trip we brought Will and Mattie and left Lijee and Jack at home to play.

Mattie tagged along again as we met up with our friends Katherine, Caroline and Emily.

Noah and Keira were our guests this trip.

#13

We made plans to meet up with the Williams. This trip was cut short due to rain.

 Six Flags is disgustingly dirty and there are sometimes super long lines.  But it's time we spend together that everyone is happy and having fun. That is why I love our time together at The Flags.
