Whoo-hoooo

We're off to a local Amusement and Water park today.  I'm pretty sure they call it "amusement" because of the people you can watch at these places- if ONLY i had those secret spy glasses!!

(I don't think these would be too obvious, do you?)

  

I need to get a pair so I can take pictures without being punched by a toothless Grandma with a hot pink mow hawk!

Every time I ever took one of those tests to help me figure out what career field I should be in

Private Investigator came up!!

(I think being nosey helped lead me in that direction)

I'm sure it's because of the hours I spent watching this man!

(Don't you love how i sneak this image in at every chance i get!!).

Happy Monday and I'll be back tomorrow with tales from the park!

We'll get back to some art and crochet too because I've been hookin' away!

The Dells....

After we left The Mister's meeting we headed to The Dells!

I think it's the water-park capital of the USA.

We decided we wanted to go to the country's BIGGEST water park because who wants to waste their time going to the "not quite as big as the biggest"?

The tickets were a little steep so The Mister asked if there was anyplace in town that offered a "deal" on tickets... well, of course there was, but isn't there always a bit of a catch?

If you rented a room at The Flamingo Motel, you got free adult tickets ($80)  and a discount on your child's ticket $27 instead of $35.

The Flamingo Motel...

doesn't the word "motel" say it all?

Clue #1...

NOT the classiest place I've ever stayed.  

This might have been the 2nd clue...

Yes there were people BBQing outside, yes there was loud music playing in the parking lot with some gals having an impromptu bootie shake, and yes, there were LONG hairs on the bathroom floor, but... it was 1 night and $80 worth of FREE water-park tickets!

We stopped at the cutest candy shop that had insanely expensive candy by the pound.

You can see how excited Darling was

The next morning after a night of dreaming there were bugs in my hair, we headed to I-Hop for breakfast.  

Do you take it as a good sign when you see this as soon as you get out of your car?

I don't usually, but we were headed to Noah's Ark water-park, so I decided that the carcass of a muskrat was a good sign, what else could I do?!

 Noah's Ark Water-Park!!

SO FUN!

Lots of stuff for little kids and lots of water rides for chickens like me and lots of rides you wouldn't get me on unless you had a gun to my head!

After playing at the kiddie pool for WAY too long I made Darling ride this with me

She screamed the whole way down, was furious with me and then rode it 4 more times and then went on the one below!

I kept telling her if mom will ride it, it can't be scary 'cause I'm a huge chicken!

We ended the day with some tide pools and lazy river rides

(and Yes, that is the sparkle boob top!) 

If you like to people watch, it doesn't get any better than a water-park!

Ok, I'm really going to try and get a little more back on track with art, crafts, and good stuff, but you know how I am!

Have a great day!!
