Red River Day 3

Wednesday was a FUN FUN day! We had a list of "to-do's" and we almost got to them all. First of all, it was Ryan and I's 3rd Anniversary! We celebrated with a dinner out to ourselves before we left town, so we didn't do a whole lot on the actual day, but we were together which was the most important thing!!!

First on the list was tubing and go-karts. We walked over to the tubing place (you ride up the bunny lift and tube down the small mountain. Unfortunately we found out you had to be at least 4 years old to tube, so the little guys couldn't do it. John could ride though, and he was pumped. The look on his face the first time down was priceless...I think it went alot faster than he thought it might. His eyes were huge, but he loved it.




After tubing we thought we'd ride go-karts, but they didn't open when we thought they did. Instead we hung out by the river for a while until it was lunch time. After naps we ventured to the go-karts again, and YAY! They were open. EVERYONE loved the go-karts. Braidy's smile never left his face. Crockett just chilled while his daddy drove, and John really got into driving.



We decided to then look for another park we had heard about, and it was AWESOME! Some really neat toys and swings for the boys to play on. They played, and played and played, then the daddy's decided it was their turn on the swings. They were going VERY high and decided to pretend they were 18 again, and JUMP off. Ryan went first, and after he jumped, he kind of landed on his feet, but the momentum got the best of him and he tumbled to the ground. OUCH. We all died laughing (after we knew he was ok, of course). Then Chris took a turn...he went UP and straight DOWN. He fell too, and I swear I thought he had broken a leg or shoulder or something. He turned out to be ok too, though, but we all died laughing again. It is something I can think about and just bust out laughing even now. Good times.






We then rode up the mountain in Uncle Chris' truck. We got REALLY high and decided to turn around and come down...it was a little scary up there, but had some beautiful views. We got out of the truck for a minute to take a few pictures before we started on the way down.


That night we cooked some delicious fajitas for dinner, had some more S'mores for dessert (are you seeing a trend here?) and again, made it to bed. We were all tired boys and girls...and I think the daddy's were in a little pain too! What a fun-filled day we had!
