Six Flags

Tuesday we took Connor and Jax to Six Flags. We had a really good time. Connor and I had tickets from the Six Flags Reading Program and so we just had to use them. I am not good in the heat and in crowds. A few of our friends that had already gone told us that the park was empty when they went or drove past so I was pretty sure that I wouldn't have to deal with the crowds. We were waiting until a day that it wasn't 105 to go, because I would be miserable and in turn make everyone else miserable! So when we had a "cold front" on Monday, we decided to go Tuesday.

We started out with a big breakfast at Denny's before.





We got to Six Flags at about 11. It wasn't too hot yet and I was happy!



Last time we went to Six Flags, Connor was a dare devil and rode everything he could, including the Shock Wave. Jaxson is a dare devil himself so we assumed that he would ride everything. We decided to break him in on the Runaway Mine Train.
He LOVED it, so we were off to the Judge Roy Scream. He didn't like that one so much. Jax is not a fan of heights so the big drops are not his idea of fun. He loved the El Sombrero, the Log Ride, the Texas Tornado and the other smaller rides. His and Connor's all time favorite was the Runaway Mine Train, which we rode over and over and over! Connor and I rode Tony Hawk's Big Spin and said he loved it but would not ride it again! We had a great time and it is so much fun to see the joy on their face while at the park. I can't wait to take them back....when it is cooler outside!

Here are a few more pics from the day.
